BETTER THAN REG TWITCH

This extension still continues to experience incredible latency while loading 7tv Emotes (specifically). The cdn-7tv-app domain used to host the emotes gets 100-250ms response times for just about everywhere in the world aside from a very small region (Sweden, if I recall correctly). Either it is using super inexpensive hosting with no peering agreements, or its suffering from its own success and being constantly overloaded.

I realize it is possible that we began experiencing these issues after firefox/browsers may have made changes affecting file caching, or other aspects. However I wonder if there are better ways now to manage the emotes platform. If it is THAT high of latency to most places, it would be nice if they could find ways to keep the most used emotes in storage/cache longer, or load non-animated emotes as image maps or animated ones as image packs. Bigger initially but much faster every moment thereafter.

I hope someone comes along to solve this issue that is lagging most users of 7tv emotes all around the world.

emotes are working currently, still kinda slow loading

Constant massive problems loading 7tv emotes! Since they changed something with their servers about a year ago it's unusable and extremely frustrating!

"Emote Set Update Notice" do not working

nice going devs, not knowing how app permissions work.

never going to update the extension; i'll just be a lurker from now on.
it now asks permission to view all of your browsing data and the contents of all pages you visit.
DON'T INSTALL THIS SPYWARE!!

The authors of 7TV refer to this article: blog.mozilla.org/addons/2025/10/23/data-collection-consent-changes-for-new-firefox-extensions/

This change took power on November 3rd. However, the last time I updated the extension was on 14th of November (you can see it by clicking RMB on the extension, then 'manage extension'), which proves their reason is made up.
