So... where is the crowdfunding to get webextensions working with WebKit GTK? (not asking for a friend)

I mean, I know giving to Gnome is already a good way to help it happen some day, but I'm wondering if there is something more specific already in the making. For instance is there someone who said they'd be interested in doing it but don't have the funding, or a specific intent statement from the Gnome foundation?

After a 3-day sprint, V2.4.0 just dropped 🏃💨

New feats: sticky header, hidden icons, and… Translation 🌍🌍🌍 What a milestone! Talk is cheap, try it yourself! (Chrome version is still under review, stay tuned.)

Hey @delta! Reading this https://delta.chat/en/2025-05-22-browser-edition got me thinking. I live in Firefox but miss Chrome’s one-click “Install PWA as app”. What about a Tauri-based helper + a Firefox extension that wraps a PWA into a desktop app in one step? Hosting stays light: the PWA is cached; relays/self-hosted instances can serve the client. Keeps control with admins. Interested? 👍🏻

edit 2026-03-26: actually, after some discussion in the comments, i have been using this extension for quite some time after all and it's become essential for me

edit 2025-10-08: i cannot vouch for the extension i linked and no longer recommend it. when i extract it and look at its background.js, there's a lot of stuff that i can't explain and i am not comfortable with. sigh... but it seems like a good concept.

one of the things that concerns me about private windows / incognito windows is that you only get one session at a time. this is a downgrade from the isolation that firefox-based browsers offer you with container tabs, especially if you have a tracker-licious website open alongside something else in your private session.

Temporary Containers Plus is an interesting idea - with Automatic Mode, you get a new container per tab: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/temporary-containers-plus

came across a nice browser add-on that disables the generation of AI overviews in search engines like duckduckgo: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/disable-ai/

super useful if you don't keep site data across sessions or if you mostly browse in private windows.

for firefox / librewolf / whatever.

What the fucking fuck that #Chrome doesn't support `background.scripts` in its Manifest v3 for #WebExtensions.

That is stupid.

If you wanna know why I haven't released BlogCat for Google Chrome and by consequence for Vivaldi, Edge and the other Chromiums, it is because of that.
