Basically the title,

I'm stuck with an old version when it was posted on Github before the takedown and I'm out of the loop, thanks guys!

Thanks! So I understand that we have to manually install the xpi from here 👌

Yes.

Hot tip. You can enable 'Install extension from file' in mobile Firefox apps (Firefox, Fennec, Mull etc) by going to Settings > About Firefox (or About Fennec etc) > Tapping the name 5 times.

You should see a message about debug mode being enabled and the 'Install extention from file' option should be in the Advanced section of your brower settings.

That's a great tip, thanks! I knew about collections to import extensions from desktop but not that one!

This is a clone of the last GitHub version before dev went away to GitFlic.

GitFlic. Original dev was chased off of GitHub for by big money

I selfhost a copy of ladder

https://github.com/everywall/ladder

And just wrote a basic right click extension to prefix the url.

Interesting, thanks! I'll have a look at this when I get some time to tinker again

Does this also get rid of annoying pop-ups?

[-] Confetti_Camouflage@pawb.social 2 points 2 years ago

Enable the optional filter lists in ublock origin.

[-] nameisnotimportant@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

You mean cookies? No

Otherwise I'm not sure, better getting some ad-blocking mechanisms like uBlock, Pi-Hole and the likes

Bypass paywall still works ?

[-] nameisnotimportant@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

It works well surprisingly enough! I'm happy to have it back

Cant paywalls be bypassed by just using reader mode?

[-] specialseaweed@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Not all of them, no.

[-] tfowinder@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

They are getting smarter. They only load enough text that user has visible on screen.

[-] nameisnotimportant@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Maybe, I have to admit that I never got used to reader mode and I was used to just getting the content seamlessly most of the time. If that works as well that's also a great solution!
