I think the issue here is

they don’t show up under “posts” on your own profile

It makes sense to hide read posts on the main feed, but not when you’re looking at a particular user?

For smaller extensions, you can start by looking at the manifest.json as this file is the entry point. You can see which part of the code needs access to ‘everything’ and go from there.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json

For example, with Instance Assistant for Lemmy, you need to give access to all sites because it needs to run on any Lemmy site and that’s not something you can hardcode in.

You could try from this

Ideally try for a smaller size, else it takes time to load and wastes people’s data

I personally find a lack of downvotes to be annoying and harmful. People don’t go through the trouble of reporting problem content, and it usually leads to poor quality inflammatory content rising to the top.

If you’re new and haven’t really set up yet, explore other instances. You can find one that aligns with what you want out of Lemmy without jumping through hoops.

If you have set up, there are account migration tools for you. They just aren’t perfect yet

Hope it helps!

Hope it helps :)

Sorry to those that have already seen this. I’m trying to space out the posts so it’s not in a large clump in your feeds. People have different subscription lists, so I’m trying to reach those that haven’t seen it yet.

These are the last 4 posts :)

A few days late, but this is actually something I’ve been working on for Instance Assistant! I implemented a first attempt and released it this weekend. Let me know if it works for you :)

It should pop up in the sidebar of any post on a foreign instance. If it doesn’t load, you may need to refresh the page. That’s something I’m still working on because redirecting on a Lemmy site isn’t always detected as navigating to a new page.

Thank you, hope it helps!

From what I’ve experienced with my extension, every update has to go through a review process. Firefox is pretty fast, chrome takes a few days and edge takes a while (opera hasn’t finished reviewing my first version, so I stopped trying with them).

The only time I failed a review was early on when my build script choked and I submitted an empty file to Chrome (whoops). So I can’t really tell how good those reviews are, but I’m not planning on testing them. I just know that they exist

Relevant bit from the post, we will now also be prepping for the Firefox Mobile app, now that they are opening mobile up to all extensions!

This may need some reworking to make it easier to use on mobile. If you have any thoughts, or would like to participate in the preview/dev releases, let me know here or elsewhere :)

have control of your local network

traffic of a particular kind

Could you give an example of what this looks like? I’m sure I’ll have friends sending me similar articles / YouTube videos. Would be nice to have a simple and accurate analogy

fixed!

That’s something my extension actually helps with as well :)
