Detect when your installed Firefox addons have changed owners
I recognize that I may be contributing to your "addons have so much power" argument, but I wanted to draw your attention to ViolentMonkey <https://github.com/violentmonkey/violentmonkey#readme> which is stellar for these site-specific customizations (known as User Scripts, of which Greasemonkey was the most famous)
-
If your Firefox suddenly started to hang or become extremely slow today, check if you have tampermonkey 5.0. Disable it for now as it seems to be the culprit.
Since Tampermonkey seems to be misbehaving, consider using Violentmonkey.

Tampermonkey: Dev Mode will become mandatory for running userscripts in Chromium
I have no damn idea why Tampermonkey, which as very best I can tell is closed source <https://github.com/Tampermonkey/tampermonkey/blob/master/REA...>, is on the "blessed" Firefox for Android list when Violentmonkey <https://github.com/violentmonkey/violentmonkey#readme> is MIT, although I readily admit doesn't it have a "politically correct" name

Current plan for the flag
Step 1Install violentmonkey (or your favorite user script manager)

umm..."Introducing Tam, your helpful assistant", Tampermonkey's v4.19 opt-out (should be opt-in) 'feature'. Thoughts?
(And yes, after that I personally pivoted to Violentmonkey. Overall it's good to have a choice :)

How do I "install" user scripts downloaded from GitHub?
I personally use TamperMonkey to run user-scripts and can vouch for its usefulness. Violentmonkey seems to be a popular alternative.

:matches-path with pseudo-elements
There is an open issue for this: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBlock-issues/issues/2786 uBO should report such filter as en error in Firefox, so that is the thing to fix.

📌 YouTube Anti-Adblock and Ads - November 12, 2023 (Mega Thread)
Current estimated cost for just ONE of uBO's CDNs: HERE. This is with other lists updating every few days. uBO's not a company, it's a volunteer project using free services, which have limits that we cannot cross.

How to block YT ads like a champ
The extension with the best success rate seems to be **uBlock Origin**. It is a community driven project with a team of volunteers, you can review the source code [here](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock). You will need to update your filter lists regularly, this because Youtube changes detection methods daily. Here is how you do that:

Show HN: Bedframe – open-source Browser Extension Development framework
Definitely a much-needed area for development. However, having gone down the browser extension rabbit hole, I've largely shifted my focus to user scripts. Granted, there will always be a need for specialized browser extensions like ad blockers (uBlock[1]), keyboard shortcuts (Vimium-C[2]), and password managers (Bitwarden[3]).
That said, I find user scripts superior for most tasks, despite some lacking UI niceties. They are easier to share, use, and crucially, audit—be it in terms of scope, permissions, or code updates. Plus if Manifest V3 is any indicator, the future for browser extensions looks bleak. While I don't agree with this direction, it's probably for the best for the majority of users, like my mom.
Your effort is commendable; however, should you find yourself looking for a viable pivot in the future, I believe the user script space is primed for innovation and could offer a good alternative.
