uBlock-for-firefox-legacy VS AppImageLauncher

Extensions explicitly designed for the old extension system still work.

https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy

Also works with Pale Moon. There are even special builds of Pale Moon that will run on Windows XP.

Mozilla SeaMonkey still has the HTML editor (and has been updated within a year!)

If you want to test it out, make sure you install https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/release... from there, because it won't show up in the extensions search.

Of course you can: XPI file

I recommend Pale Moon http://www.palemoon.org/ (definitely doesn't steal your data, or tracks you at all. It also doesn't do bloat or junk. In fact it even uses less resources than chromium or firefox) with adblocker (advanced) https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/ematrix/ and/or (average) https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/releases

Firefox 59 & Mypal 29 work with Ublock Origin Legacy <-use this link if GitHub's broken

Mypal 29: click this link: https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/releases/download/firefox-legacy-1.16.4.30/uBlock0_1.16.4.30.firefox-legacy.xpi & follow the prompts.

i'm using pale moon and this legacy fork of ublock origin, which quite possibly is the issue.

for adblocker there is https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy/releases , for windows xp x64 there is https://archive.org/details/WindowsXP_Professional_x64_SP2

Pale Moon supports XUL add-ons, but there is uBlock Origin among others. Which are you lacking?

Every file that you want to execute has to be in your environment PATH. I would also advise to put symlinks and personal executables in ~/.local/bin and put that to your path. Since your user has ownership over that directory, you won't have any probs with permissions that may or may not occur at all. Since we're talking about AppImage files, you might also want to take a look at AppImageLauncher which does a pretty good job at creating entries for your Desktop Menu for the AppImage files that you install to your system.

I think it's safe to install it directly as it stores everything in a single directory. For AppImages there is also AppImagePool + AppImageLauncher (can be installed rootless, useful for better integration of appimages).

This reminds me of a prettier version of AppImageLauncher. Is there also an "Uninstall" option in the right-click menu of the app launcher?

I'm using AppImageLauncher on Fedora.

"... I recall that this was related to an issue with most Electron apps, wherein the AppImage cannot be integrated with the desktop or the favourites bar. So far we've found that the AppImageLauncher (https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher) helps with getting around this!
