    They are only doing this as a smokescreen.

    What needs to happen is for all games with randomized blind box purchases to have one tag and all games that have DLC/Microratransactions to have another tag.

    Using one tag for both means that all games will get the tag and it completely defeats the purpose for such a thing (from the perspective of the consumer) but does allow companies to pretend they are informing buyers/parents about the nature of the game they are buying.

    which requires copying some files to your profile directory and then commenting lines in and out, no coding required.

    Took me about 30 mins to get FF set up the way I wanted it to look.

    for the longest time NoScript didn't have a compatible version, it does now, along with the fact that a lot of the functionality I was using it for can be achieved via Ublock Origin's 'advanced' mode.

    and there were a few others that I realized when going though that I no longer needed (but updates were not available) however they don't come to mind right now.

    Some extensions just don't work or have the same level of flexibility in quantum. I was stuck on the old version until certain extensions that I use daily had been updated to work with it or alternatives found. Sometimes the extension author cannot update the extension because the core functionality requires access that is just not possible on the new FF builds.

    There is so much stuff they have changed with FF trying to ape chrome, I'm thankful for the userstyle.css hacks that are possible (until they decide they need to depreciate those too) to get it...

    I'd say that reddit will remain useful for smaller communities until the changes to the platform alienate enough users such that the small communities lose members and look to relocate.

    I will say there is an ever growing pool of defaults that I no longer belong to.
