by Firefox user 13571539, 7 years agoLike other victims of the "Post-57 Experience," I've been scrambling to find like replacements for the few extensions I had (running FF-Windows).
I had Flash Block. Now I'm using Flash Block Plus. It works about as well as its predecessor at blocking flash, though it doesn't seem quite as adept with ads as it used to be. (The only bad news here is that FF now has pretty much the same flash blocking capability, which makes FB+ a little bit redundant.)
What I really, REALLY miss is that with the original Flash Block, upon right-clicking a flash frame, you were offered the option to Copy Flash Location. That was invaluable to me for the ability to run things like games full-screen (where the server would allow it). This feature now seems completely absent, and I miss it dearly. Can that functionality be restored? Or is there somewhere else in the extension that I just haven't found yet?
I absolutely loathe the idea of having to dig into the page's source code or page info to try and find the flash's link. I really don't know what I'm doing, and the process is cumbersome at best.
If this feature got re-added, I'd sing the praises of Flash Block Plus from the rooftops.
