Firefox @fedia.io kill @kbin.social

I'm looking for an Add-on Manager. I have way too many addons. I enable many of them for development, disable them afterwards. I can't search Installed Addons. What do?

I am in a bit of a pickle. I'm a developer, and I also use some crypto social media, and I also like downloading media sometimes, I do a lot of stuff. I modify CSS, I script & hack the web, yadda yadda. Basically what this means is I ended up with like 50 addons I juggle-enable-disable all the time. This is extremely frustrating without some kind of grouping them, or at the very least searching only among my installed addons to enable/disable.

Do you guys have any idea if a tool or method exists to solve this problem?

  • @kill How about creating a second Firefox profile dedicated to development? I did that for a different reason, to create a PDF viewer using Firefox. It has the right settings and addons only active when viewing a PDF. This idea could be used to have a dedicated development environment which does not interfere with your personal data and configuration. And you can back them up and restore individually.

    • Yeah, this is pretty much how family members have set up their "shopping" profiles with the coupon extensions, etc.
