Why do some extensions not work in Pale Moon?
And that is all fine & dandy - as an overview.
Though in reality, regardless of whether an extension specifically targets PM (or any other browser), you never know what you're going to get, you never know whether there are incompatibilities, whether an extension will "cause stability or security problems".
The best you can do is to take what is there & hope that it works, correctly, or enough, for you.
Take FlashGot.
Works fine in SeaMonkey.
Works fine in FF (I believe).
Take & throw it into Waterfox & all works - except that the context-menu item, 'FlashGot Link' does not display - unless you disable multi-process in Waterfox.
All other context-menu items do display, all seems to work correctly. Even the shortcut key (Ctrl+F1) for 'FlashGot Link' works - but for whatever reason the actual menu item does not display.
Is FlashGot multi-process compatible? Not sure?
Is there a bug in FlashGot? In Waterfox? Don't know.
In any case, with Waterfox running in multi-process mode, FlashGot works - well enough.
