most addons dont work anymore because of a new update

this is one of the many https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hoxx-vpn-proxy/

i downloaded waterfox today and this happens when i try to get into a addon i really like and a lot of the addons do the same now: This add-on requires a newer version of Firefox (at least version 57.0a1). You are using Firefox 55.2.2.

please fix this

I'd recommend trying previous Version 2.3.0 : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hoxx-vpn-proxy/versions/ : current versions targets Firefox 57 (released today) and newer; current Waterfox is based on Firefox ~ 55.

This is IMO change of AMO pages deprecating addons for Fx 56- or wrong metadata of the ext: version with "Firefox 57 support added!" is marked as 57+ only.

https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/hoxx-vpn-proxy/versions/?page=1#version-2.3.0 2.3.0 added to Waterfox 56.0 (64-bit) on FreeBSD-CURRENT.

Higher versions of the add-on apparently not compatible –

– and a check for updates found nothing applicable ☑️
