- Rated 2 out of 5by syldub, 4 years agoExcellent addon, but it does not work since Firefox 89 anymore
- Rated 2 out of 5by girst, 7 years ago**There is now a well-enough open source alternative at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/temporary-containers/ that I can whole-heartedly recommend instead. **

this addon would be great, if the author
1. had made it available under an open source license
2. had _not_ used javascript obfuscation to further cloak the inner workings of the addon
pretty-please release the source code, dear author! you will be praised for it and other people can help improve the code.
if you are worried others will take your code and run with it, use the GNU GPL license - it protects against it. if this is not of concern, use the MPL.
ETA: @author: glad to hear that! I personally do not need any modifications at this time, but I would like to verify the code myself. (EDIT again: found one: addon appears to be incompatible to firefox developer edition 57 - but the main point of open source is verifiability. ) Out of principle, I do not run addons that obfuscate the javascript source. if you've got questions about 'open source' or anything in general, feel free to send me an email (it is at the bottom of https://gir.st/ - won't post it here for spam reasons)
ETA: it's a matter of principle for me.Developer response
posted 7 years agoYes, I am thinking about this.
But what improvements do you need?
Edit: You know that we have to send the sources for review to the Firefox team. They also check that the obfuscated code was generated from those sources.
