Migrate to Manifest v3

Open TgSeed opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

Hello, I'm not sure if you're active or following github anymore, but i have been using this extension for a long time and it had some issues with latest browser versions (I have only tried in FireFox) which was somehow annoying and i was unable to find such a great extension for my use case anywhere else. That's why i tried to update and fix the issues. Thanks for the great extension you built.

First of all thank you very much for your hard work getting into the code and upgrading it @TgSeed!

I am, yes. As my other businesses take a lot of time, it will take a while to go through your PR. But it looks great at the first glance!

Can you tell me which problems you had previously which made you create the PR?

Thanks for reviewing it

I have been using Cloudflare WARP and that does rotate the IP address, and using your extension i have been getting A LOT of IP change notifications because the extension wasn't saving/keeping the settings. It was the one and only reason i decided to fork and fix.

But please review the PR carefully, I did coded only one extension before this.

Thanks a lot for updating the extension, I appreciate it. Can you please update the Firefox extension too?

@TgSeed Firefox is currently not fully supporting Manifest V3. Once they finish the implementation, I'll migrate to it. As of now, service workers are needed to run the extension, this is lacking in Firefox right now. See here more: https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2024/03/13/manifest-v3-manifest-v2-march-2024-update/

Firefox doesn't plan to deprecate Manifest V2, so we are safe for now :)
