So, to anyone using my FilterAffinity browser plugin, I hope its been helpful to you! I spent a lot of my time and effort into making it work with some of the (admittedly strange) design choices and such here on FA, and I'm glad its been able to help as many people as it has.
However, its also pretty out of date. Browser updates have rendered it non-functional in both Firefox and Chrome (to an extent), and it'll need to be 1) rewritten and 2) submitted to both browser's stores for approval, as non-signed browser extensions like this will no longer work. That's going to take some work to implement at the very least. On the plus side, all of the browsers are (supposedly) going to use very similar frameworks from now on! Meaning the same code I use in Chrome will work in Firefox, which will also work in Edge, and in Opera if what I'm reading is correct here.
That's great! It saves me some hassle if this actually works out.
However, this sort of thing isn't going to be functional for a few weeks still, at least on Firefox. Then there's the approval process, if that works at all (I had to do some pretty hacky stuff to get the filtering working on the submission descriptions...That might not fly in a review process). In the meantime, please bear with me on this, I'll try to get it up in the appropriate stores when I can, but we'll have to see how it goes.
So, how can you help? Well, you can't quite frankly. XD It'll be faster if I just code it all myself (this sort of thing is basically what I do for a living anyway). But if you wanted to toss a bit of money my way for this endeavor (hint hint) I wouldn't mind it! :D
No, its not required at all and the plugin's going to be free on every browser I can get it on, lol.

What else, hmm...Well, I'll be trying to work on some stuff to post at some point soon, so keep an eye out for that as well! Sorry I've been so lax in updates, been dealing with a lot on my end lately.
Stay safe everyone!

Mozilla's approval process seems to be pretty much quality control but this rule might be problematic:
The following add-ons are not permitted in any form:
- Add-ons whose main purpose is to facilitate access to pornographic material, or include references to this material in their descriptions
Thanks for looking that up though, I'll keep that in mind.
