jst reported dveditz’ webextension based add-on “Open Selected Links” WebExtension stopped working. Shell can't find that extension - so NIing dveditz for a link if i wrote the name down wrong. Also what stopped working and do you have a timeframe for when it stopped.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-selected-links/ It stopped working for me, too. There were no visible errors, just the context menu item didn't show up. In today's nightly it was magically working again. jst: Is it working for you now, too? Or is it just a flaky "sometimes it does" kind of thing? [off topic for bug: kmag suggested that tab.executeScript() would be better than loading a content script in every page, but that's not the reason the context menus don't show up.]

when the service worker issue was corrected - this and lastpass instantly started working again the day that patch landed. believe that issue resolved this issue (of about 1.5 weeks)
