I just installed the version 33.6.1 (MBA 2010, OS 10.11). The Add-Ons Manager doesn't find any extensions available. No matter what search terms I use, its always "Could not find any matching add-ons".

I would like to add an ad blocker of some kind, how to do it?

There are extensions available with the SeaLion download on the GitHub page, there's a link provided ;)

https://github.com/wicknix/SeaLion/releases/tag/33.6.1, look for "Add-ons, extensions, and themes can be found here."

Cheers :)

There are extensions bundled with the SeaLion download, in the Extras folder I think ;)
Thanks, but in my download from Github there is only the one package and if I look into the package contents I cannot find Extras of any other extensions than what are installed stock (themes and search plugins) there either.

EDIT: went back to Github, there is a separate download for extensions etc. I'll give it a try. Thanks!
EDIT 2: yes! That is what I was looking for. Adblockers etc. 👍 :cool:

I know i’ve been slacking on Mac releases as my summer months are quite busy. I should have some new builds uploaded in the coming weeks.

@wicknix You're holding yourself to impossibly high standards if you regard this as slacking. :D

As an aside, I'm curious as to your thoughts on the Waterfox branch. If you've had a chance to take a look at it.

I lost interest in it a few years ago when Alex sold it to an advertising company. I know they cut ties a year or 2 ago, but meh, still too heavy and resource hungry. UXP based browsers ( Pale Moon / Basilisk / SeaLion / Etc ) are the only code bases i actually trust to not spy on you.
