The Great Suspender once again contains malware
Happened in (2021)[https://github.com/greatsuspender/thegreatsuspender/issues/1...], and then a few others have forked the extension and tried to revive it, only to eventually sell to nefarious owners or sell user data themselves

People often recommend open source apps for malware free apps. But has there ever been a case where a *popular* open source project was found to be malicious after some time?

> TLDR: The old maintainer appears to have sold the extension to parties unknown, who have malicious intent to exploit the users of this extension in advertising fraud, tracking, and more. In v7.1.8 of the extension (published to the web store but NOT to GitHub), arbitrary code was executed from a remote server, which appeared to be used to commit a variety of tracking and fraud actions. After Microsoft removed it from Edge for malware, v7.1.9 was created without this code: that has been the code distributed by the web store since November, and it does not appear to load the compromised script. However, the malicious maintainer remains in control, however, and can introduce an update at any time. It further appears that, while v7.1.9 was what was listed on the store, those who had the hostile v7.1.8 installed did NOT automatically receive the malware-removing update, and continued running the hostile code until Google force-disabled the extension.

Is the SingleFile extension flagged as high risk by ChromeStats (link), just because of the nature of it saving your page ?
For what it is worth, you may have heard of the Great Suspender incident (https://github.com/greatsuspender/thegreatsuspender/issues/1263). It was used by millions, and was also open source on GitHub, but it could still end up becoming malicious.

Behold the Android-Windows ecosystem.
Long ass comment: That is not true for the most part. While the increased amount of individuals working of an OSS project may lead to better vulnerability detection according to both parties of the closed-source/proprietary debate, it doesn't lead to a massively more secure software overall. Not all reviewers have the similar experience or expertise and, because of it, not everyone will be able to review, identify or patch any flaws or vulnerability of a specific software since it may require other skills beyond just basic programming skills such as network or cryptographic skills. [1] Some even suggested that the large number of users contributing to the project can lead people "into a false sense of security." [2] Overall, some papers conclude that being an open source software or a proprietary software isn't an important factor for security and suggest considering other factors, such as the particular vendor/maintainer that controls the entire process. [3] After all, what if the maintainer decides to sabotage their own code? What if the project was sold to another maintainer for its own shaddy needs?

How much RAM does a react developer require in 2021/22?
If you're referring to The Great Suspender, that extension was bought by an advertising company earlier this year. I'm using the last good version (github) though.

Twitch's Unforgivable Ad and Tracking Abuse: It's Time We Stand Up For Our Privacy!

Firefox 108.0 released
I would seriously consider using streamlink twitch gui application + vlc combo or addons like Alternate player for twitch. They both have waay less overhead and consume less CPU/RAM. (With alternate player you can use firefox's PIP functionality by SHIFT+RightClicking on the video)
