    Version 2.3.5

    Released May 13, 2019 - 59.88 KB
    Works with firefox 56.0 and later
    Important bug fixes for background estimation.

    The behaviour of the Blacken and Whiten commands has been altered to
    disregard the background. This makes them more useful as manual overrides
    of text colour.

    This adds some more tuning parameters. The speed on complicated

  • Version 2.3.3

    Released Oct 18, 2018 - 56.03 KB
    Works with firefox 56.0 and later
    Some web sites, e.g. the Washington Post, generate large numbers of apparent changes to the page, up to several hundred per second. (I suspect a Google script is to blame). This overloaded the Blacken add-on which clogged Firefox. This was most apparent on Windows. This version copes better with the problem.

    Also there is a fix that makes the whitelists work again.

  • Version 2.3.1

    Released Nov 12, 2017 - 54.21 KB
    Works with firefox 56.0 and later, android 56.0 to 68.*
    This is the first Web Extensions version. You must have first upgraded to 2.2.33 in order to preserve your settings.

    Most things still work as well as before. However control over the grayness of placeholder text has been lost. You can still change it manually.
