Firefox Add-On Broken

Open DReaper opened this issue 1 year ago • 6 comments

When I click on the red squares in Tweets now, it just shows a red X with a gray background. Chrome add-on works fine. It used to work in FF before.

It does not work with "Enhanced Tracking Protection" set to "Strict" in Firefox. about:preferences#privacy image

I checked it, the old version of the script works the same way (0.8.3-2022.08.09, for example).

It seems "Tracking content" feature breaks the work.

Checked with the latest Firefox 105.0.2.


Even with Firefox ESR 102.3.0 the old userscript version 0.8.3-2022.08.09 does not work.

I assume it never used to work with this setting ("Tracking content") in Firefox.

It used to work in FF before.

Possibly, one year ago it even worked (with "Strict" option), when it tested it before: https://github.com/violentmonkey/violentmonkey/issues/1325

But it does not seem to be working anymore due to FF changes.


...well, technically I just can use GM_xmlhttpRequest, however, this consumes significantly more memory and computing resources. It's why I use the native browser's fetch API.

Tested, setting it to Standard works. I must've set it to Strict at one point.

Now you can choose between enabling

  • The download progress, or
  • The fix of "Enhanced Tracking Protection" set to "Strict" in Firefox. (Required for VM and GM, but not for TM.)

Can confirm this fix works
