Version 3.2b1
Released Mar 20, 2020 - 222.65 KBWorks with firefox 67.0 and laterImportant changes for Firefox 75
Firefox 75 has removed an important functionality (IDBMutableFile) used by the extension. From version 3.2, the extension is forced to use another storage method to be compatible. The caveats are:
You will need to pause all tasks before exiting the browser. Otherwise, some progress will be lost depending on the extension parameters.
Existing downloads using the old method cannot be continued with the new method. If you are currently downloading a large file, it is suggested to wait for it to complete before upgrading Firefox.
Performance drops have not been noticed during tests, but they may vary with different system conditions and parameters.
This new storage method was first introduced in version 3.0 as an option. If you have set the storage API option to Segmented files, you can reset it to default in 3.2.Source code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0

Version 3.0a3
Released Jan 28, 2020 - 215.64 KBWorks with firefox 67.0 and laterFirefox is planning to remove the storage functionality used by this extension. This will affect the extension severely.
From version 3.0, a new storage method is implemented that only uses supported functions. The caveats are:
- You will need to pause all tasks before exiting the browser. Otherwise, some progress will be lost depending on the extension parameters.
- Existing downloads using the old method cannot be continued with the new method.
- Performance drops have not been noticed during tests, but they may vary with different system conditions and parameters.
This new method is not enabled by default yet. The options of choosing the storage method and the parameters have been added, if you want to test it now.Source code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
Version 2.10.1
Released Jan 22, 2020 - 213 KBWorks with firefox 67.0 and laterFix: custom CSS does not workSource code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
Version 2.10
Released Jan 19, 2020 - 213 KBWorks with firefox 67.0 and laterEmergency fix: incompatibility with Firefox Nightly 74
Firefox Nightly 74 just removed an important function that the extension depends on.
This version is able to workaround this issue, but the performance of saving files will decrease.
Additionally, it is unknown whether Firefox will remove the whole mutableFile API in the near future. If so, the entire storage layer will need to be rewritten. It may or may not be possible to build this extension with acceptable performance then.
I'll see how things go and prepare workarounds if possible.Source code released under Mozilla Public License 2.0
