ℹ️ We're working on a proper firefox store release already.

To install go to the releases page and follow the instructions there.

FAQ

Why does it need permission for all websites?

The addon needs to determine whether or not the site you are currently browsing is a Mastodon server. For that to work, it requires access to all sites. Otherwise, each existing Mastodon server would have to be explicitly added.

setup

  • install web-ext with npm install --global web-ext
  • optionally:
    • run web-ext run --firefox-profile='$ProfileNameOfYourChoosing' --profile-create-if-mising
    • open that profile in firefox, log into fedi
    • after that when you run web-ext run -p='$ProfileNameOfYourChoosing' you should be logged into your fedi account
  • run the extension with web-ext run -u -u="yourinstancehere"
