    Great addon, but does not work for gifs/webp any longer.

    Stopped working today for NY Times. So not as effective anymore. Hoping for an update.

    This is a nice thought, but it's hard to make this automatic, since it's not clear when the page has loaded completely enough that it's safe to stop. I'd suggest looking into NoScript, or Firefox's built-in support for disabling animations (e.g. image.animation_mode, media.autoplay.enabled), or other animation-disabling addons.

    Doesn't work lately on a number of websites, especially those that try to sell something and have annoying "call us" and "message us" animated buttons. Example of website that does not stop animation: https://www.basalt.ru/soprovozhdenie-sdelok-s-nedvizhimostyu/sdelki-s-domami/

    P.S. Wow that was fast. Fixed for that site at least. I'll will report later if I see problems remaining on other sites.

    P.P.S. Here is another page where it fails to stop an animated image in bottom right corner: https://prozhivem.com/kvartira/prodazha/razreshenie-organov-opeki-i-popechitelstva

    Thanks for the feedback! I've uploaded a new version of the addon with a fix for that website.

    Edit: uploaded 0.5 which should fix your second report as well. (Note that I don't get notifications for review edits. https://github.com/gavinsharp/SuperStop/issues is a better place to post issues.)
