Sure, but what I'm arguing against here in this thread is the pervasive "Mozilla is evil, they only killed XUL extensions for fun". Just read this thread.

When actually millions of users get a vastly superior Firefox. Many, many extensions have been updated. And some extensions – mostly niche ones haven't. I love that trade-off.




On this, I definitely agree.

Parent started blaming people. I certainly understand when authors don't have time or have lost interest.

Insofar I was wrong. It's not authors who are to blame, it's very vocal users. You can see a few of them right here.
