- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13437159, 7 years agoThere is really no excuse for having one's addon obfuscated. In fact, Tampermonkey is the only addon I know of that deliberately obfuscates its code! That brings the question: what are the developers trying to hide and why?
If you don't want anybody else to fork your extension, just release it under a restrictive custom license, and everybody will be happy. There is no way somebody could abuse such a license and benefit from it. So we'll be looking forward to a release w/o deliberate obfuscation!Developer response

Either there is nothing hidden besides the concrete implementation or neither the Mozilla Add-on review team, nor the Opera extension review team, nor the Windows Store team did their job.

In a perfect world: yes. - Rated 4 out of 5by JonC, 7 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by lyravega, 7 years agoI've been using Greasemonkey for so long, it has become a habit in time. Never looked for anything else as it did what I wanted without any hassle.
Then comes Firefox Quantum. And for some reason, Greasemonkey decided to throw away backwards compatibility, which ended up more than half of my scripts not working anymore. On top of that, it lost its usability, by showing every single script, having no options menu of any kind, a script editor that cannot even rival Notepad (yes, the default Notepad the Windows has), and so on.
So I looked for an alternative, and realized that Tampermonkey is not just a Chrome add-on, there also exists a Firefox Quantum compatible version. Switched over, copied my scripts, and everything is working properly. Then discovered the rest of it; excellent UI, lots of options, great editor, and many more.
I don't think I'll be going back, and had I knew the quality work that has been put into Tampermonkey, I'd have switched before. Never looked for anything else Greasemonkey, but I'm really glad it gave me a reason to look for something else with its Firefox Quantum update, as it led me to discover Tampermonkey, and as I've said, I wish I had looked into this long before. - Rated 5 out of 5by Andrey Dogadkin, 7 years agoNice replacement for Greasemonkey with their dubious decision of backward incompatibility. All the scripts which were working on pre57 Greasemonkey seem to be working here, on FF 57 just flawlessly. Thanks!
Отличная замена Greasemonkey с их сомнительным решением отказаться от обратной поддержки. Все скрипты, работавшие раньше на Greasemonkey, работают в Tampermonkey на FF 57 безукоризненно. Спасибо! - Rated 5 out of 5by wychun, 7 years ago
