v2.0.0alpha2

First public build of WebExtension rewrite. Requires Firefox 52 or later.
This is alpha quality, we do not have proper test suite yet and UX is quite basic. YMMV.
We would appreciate feedback and bug reports.

Known issues

• "page action" → "Copy Public Gateway URL " may return broken link (#217)

  Temporary workaround for users of v2.0.0alpha2 is to remove /
  from the end of "Custom Gateway URL" in "Preferences":

  

• "right click on any image or video → Upload to IPFS" sometimes does not work for some resources,
  eg. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CIR4ppcUMAApv5a.jpg (investigating)

New features

• "browser action" → Quick Upload → select file from disk to upload to IPFS
  (this is a PoC and UX is bit rough. Upload tab will be replaced with Aidebar action #214)

  

• right click on any image or video → Upload to IPFS

  

• "page actions" for IPFS resources:

  • copy canonical IPFS path
  • copy shareable link to resource at the public gateway
  • pin/unpin:

    

• Firefox 54+: support for web+ipfs:, web+ipns: and web+fs: protocols (#164 (comment))

• bugfix for opening "Open WebUI" from Browser Action (broken in v2.0.0alpha1)
