Heyyyyyyy,
@barbaz (and maybe
@Giorgio !) ... Thought I'd lightly ask to see how ABE (or ABE 2.0 / similar site by site ruling for external domains) is moving along.
I'm 100% asking for my normal firefox usage, not tor, as I desparately want to move closer to single browser web surfing again!
As always: This isn't said or asked with any entitlement, expectation, nor any ill subterfuge. Just wanna see how ABE is progressing, and what we're realistically looking at for timelines.
¹
EDIT: I've seen ABE in the noscript
about:config, if I enable it (
it still has my old rules in there!) will it start working, or is the underlying functionality still not quite finished in quantumfox?
______________________________________________________
Relatedly: I had a thought of something I could do that might help ... Would it be OK for me to maybe start a (temporary, until abe comes home) sub forum (or thread, if that's more workable) for a temporary workaround called:
- Site Temporary Allows (or maybe swap "Allows" for "Rules" or "Allow Rules")
Each post (or reply) would list:
- Site Name
- Site URL
- The domains required to get the site working at the most basic level (imagery, and basic navigation). ²
- Notes (why the user posted)
This could allow people to search
noscript [site] temporary rules in google or here, and quickly find a workaround for ABE functionality. It's janky, but it might help a few in the meantime. I'd also be happy to consider making a separate resource out there online somewhere, perhaps just a webform website, or a simple SQLite DB, I dunno.
If someone's already done this, then I'm a fool and my search skill really suck, hah!
Also, again offered with pure transparency, and purely as a 'look over there', I think the ScriptSafe folks are doing some nice things over on Chrome. If you guys teamed up you'd probably be unstoppable! (scary!!!
...)
