Jailbreak-Firefox

This script allows you to install unsigned extensions (ones that aren't approved by Mozilla) on normal Firefox builds and the official Snap! That's right, no "Firefox Developer Edition" nonsense required!

⚠️ Disclaimer ⚠️

This script is not well tested, like at all. This script might break things, possibly important things. You should probably take a backup of your Firefox profile before using it. You have been warned.

Dependencies

sudo apt install -y curl unzip zip
# Only needed when jailbreaking the Snap

NOTE

by the time you're reading this, this probably no longer works since the policy has been removed. I reccomend you to check out https://github.com/r58Playz/uBlock-mv3 instead

How to keep using adblockers on chrome and chromium

1. google's manifest v3 has no analouge to the webRequestBlocking API, which is neccesary for (effective) adblockers to work
2. starting in chrome version 127, the transition to mv3 will start cutting off the use of mv2 extensions alltogether
3. this will inevitably piss of enterprises when their extensions don't work, so the ExtensionManifestV2Availability key was added and will presumably stay forever after enterprises complain enough

You can use this as a regular user, which will let you keep your mv2 extensions even after they're supposed to stop working
