can someone *please* find us a way to use modern firefox or a modern firefox fork with a download status bar that works
we hate the downloads being a button in the upper toolbar and really want them to be on the bottom but it seems like no extensions for modern firefox can do that without huge compromises
-F
this is a call for help because we kind of need this feature for accessibility reasons that are somewhat complicated to explain and i would really like to be able to use weasyl and stackexchange and stuff again
-F
alternatively some other firefox fork that allows old addons *and* doesn't break weasyl and stackexchange, that would work too
why did they have to change the addon system, i hate how things are being made less accessible

@Felthry the best thing there seems to be is https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/wx-download-status-bar/
but it injects itself into websites so idk
@noiob i installed that and it just plain doesn't work
-F
@Felthry I really think the best solution for this would be to run some de-googled Chrome/Chromium since it already has that download bar
@noiob don't those also have the download bar be really big though?
or is that customizable? because we're used to it being about 20 pixels tall and chrome has it like three times that height
-F
@noiob but what would you recommend for a de-googled one, i'm willing to give it a try
-F
@Felthry seems like there's only one https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium
@noiob we'll give that a try sometime
-F
@Felthry hope you can find a modern browser you're happy with
@noiob i just wish they would put firefox back how it used to be, i want to have what we're used to back

we've been using waterfox classic for the last several years so we can continue using an old extension that does what we want but websites keep breaking compatibility with the old version of firefox this is based on
