In his latest Pale Moon extension-blocklist update, Moonchild, among other changes, moved to "severity 3" (hard/permanent block) the following two extensions:
Giorgio Maone's (legacy) NoScript (id="{73a6fe31-595d-460b-a920-fcc0f8843232}")
JustOff's Moon Tester Tool (id="moonttool@Off.JustOff")
and added directly at "severity 3" level ()
JustOff's Classic Add-ons Archive (CAA) (id="ca-archive@Off.JustOff")
Code below:
https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/Pale-Moon/commit/1ca7c78
I don't know whether it's a typo (probably not...), but the commit's title says it "fixes" PM issue #1444 , which has nothing to do with the extension blocklist... The latest update is in fact just another coordinated offensive against JustOff's offerings (previous ally, now treated as worst foe...).
@roytam1 : Are New Moon 28 users being served the same blocklist as Moonchild's PM?
Browsing inside NM28's "about:config" section and filtering for "extensions.blocklist", I see:
extensions.blocklist.url;https://blocklist.palemoon.org/?version=%VERSION%
but what is the value of %VERSION% in our case (if it's 28.10.3a1, then the resultant URI redirects to
https://blocklist.palemoon.org/v28-1/blocklist.xml
which serves currently an older iteration of the blocklist... ) ?
Might I kindly ask you to undo these changes (if indeed they'll affect us, too ), since many users here use one or more of the now permanently blocked PM extensions (I use MTT+CAA, NoScript also has some enthusiasts among NM28 users ...).
Somewhat OT, but do you, too, see "hieroglyphs" on everything hosted on www.palemoon.org:
I noticed this when trying a NM28 fresh profile and was greeted with

FTR, the Page Source is correctly in English, but when the page loads, only displays English for a mere fraction of a second, then falls back to indecipherable scripts; I have tried several character encodings, all to no avail...
