    🔧 Fake News Detector — Firefox Patch Update

    🔥 Firefox Patch Notes (Cross-Browser Fix)
    1. Fixed Incorrect Timestamp Formatting

    Firefox automatically converts UTC timestamps into the user’s local timezone, causing history timestamps to be 8 hours off.

    ✔ Implemented manual UTC → MYT (+8h) conversion
    ✔ Replaced new Date().toLocaleString() with formatReportTime()
    ✔ Firefox history timestamps now match Chrome & Full Report
    1. Added formatReportTime() for Firefox

    ✔ Parses backend UTC timestamps safely
    ✔ Handles hour/day overflow correctly
    ✔ Ensures consistent DD/MM/YYYY, HH:MM:SS AM/PM formatting
    1. Updated History Cards to Use New Time Format

    Old code:

    new Date(item.timestamp).toLocaleString()

    New Firefox-compatible version:

    formatReportTime(item.timestamp)
    1. Improved Cross-Browser Compatibility

    ✔ Unified storage APIs using promise-wrapped helpers
    ✔ Added fallback for browsers without chrome.scripting
    ✔ Ensured content script injection works on Firefox MV2
    ✔ Fixed sendMessage compatibility with Firefox callbacks
    1. Stability Improvements

    ✔ Better error handling if content script isn't active
    ✔ Prevents popup crashes when Firefox blocks script injection
    ✔ Ensures full-report navigation works via tabs.update in Firefox
