[dba-Tech] [dba-OT] Firefox broke my FTP!

[Jim Lawrence]

This is terrible. 

Firefox warned that many plugins would become unresponsive. Three years ago FF said that an upgrade was coming that would deprecate a number of third party products and as usual few developers listened. I am sure, if there is sufficient demand the fixed plugins will reappear. 

Working with Linux (and Windows for that matter) with each major release, major carnage follows.

Double Aaaaaah!

Just found out that I've also lost SQLite Manager with the update.  :(

"This extension depended upon the interface to sqlite engine embedded in Firefox. As the 
interface has been removed in Firefox 57, this extension no longer functions."


That's two tools I use frequently in Firefox gone.
