But if the extension is removed from the store you will not get updates.
Good thing you can add extensions from places other than the store.
Not sure why the downvotes. I generally try to avoid extensions apart from ublock origin, but if I really need something, then I always get it from the developer's github, not from chrome/firefox store. WAY TOO MANY cases of open-source extensions getting hijacked with malware on the store but not on github. Remember cookies.txt? Or great suspender? Or stylish?
But uBlock Origin does not set
update_urlin it'smanifest.jsonso it won't update automatically. You'd have to do it manually every time.Oh no, I guess it's impossible for that to ever change.
It's a good thing to be able to communicate without sarcasms when it's not called for.
But I don't think it'll change, feel free to try and make a PR but you'll also need to setup a server to host the releases and
update.xml.
