Re: Firefox's change to WebExtensions kills adblockers?

As will I, but if Firefox is to keep functioning adblockers with WebExtensions as their basis, surely a WebExtension fork is required?

Firefox's change to WebExtensions kills adblockers?

I suppose this was more or less inevitable when the major competitor folded and started using Google's extension structure.

Maybe Mozilla and Microsoft together will have the clout to fork it?
