A lot of you probably already noticed that One-Click-Postage is only showing 5 blogs in the drop down. Rest assured, we know about it and are actively trying to fix it!
Tumblr changed something in the backend which broke our blog detection, but our team is actively trying to find a new, reliable way to detect the blogs and we’ll update XKit as soon as we can!
We’ll let you guys know when it’s fixed, but it should only be a little bit longer.
Mac users rejoice! Four months ago, your generous donations allowed us to begin development on a version of New XKit for Safari. Today, we are pleased to announce that we have finally passed Apple review and are available on the Safari Extensions Gallery.
This is the first ever release of New XKit supporting Safari. We would like to thank Avi, Cris, Nathan, Jonathan, Miles, and our anonymous donors for making this possible.
tl;dr: Get New XKit on our Safari Extension Gallery page
As always, you can get in touch with us by sending an ask to @new-xkit-support or @new-xkit-discussion or visiting our live support chat. If no one responds in the live chat, it means the developers are currently busy/away/sleeping! Just wait a bit and someone will get back to you!
Hey everyone! The New XKit Town Hall will begin in about an hour. When it begins, we’ll start with a little introduction, then have approximately 1-2 hours of team-only discussion (which you are all invited to watch and discuss in the off-topic channel), and then a Q&A session about the project.
The Town Hall will begin at 2 PM Pacific, 5 PM Eastern, and 10 PM UTC
we’re starting now!
Hey guys, we’re to our Q&A portion. Took a little longer then we expected to get here, but now we’re open for any and all questions on the state of the project.
Come hang out! The only rules are to be respectful, and don’t type while we’re answering someone else’s question.

We’ve been working on New XKit for awhile. If we look back, we can see all the progress we’ve made: currently the Chrome Web Store reports that there are 300,000 users of New XKit, the Firefox Addon Store reported a healthy number of users before we were taken down, and we having a working Safari build. Needless to say, New XKit is a very stable project.
Now we’re in a position to do something we’ve never done before: host a Town Hall! It’s a meeting where we discuss the New XKit organization, report on the state of this extension, and field any questions you may have. We’re doing this so we can plan our project goals as well as bring visibility to the issues that affect New XKit overall.
The Town Hall will be held this Saturday, 1/16 at 2 PM Pacific/5 PM Eastern/10 PM UTC on our unofficial Discord server. Before you ask, you don’t need to register for an account, and Discord clients are available for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android. It’s also available from the web.
Near the end of the Town Hall, we will open up for a Q&A session. Please note that the chat will be moderated; we intend to listen to and answer questions one at a time, not all at once. Furthermore, please do not ask questions about specific problems or bugs you are experiencing. Those questions should be sent to @new-xkit-support or our live chat.
And if you’re feeling eager and can’t wait until Saturday, you can hop in right now and say hi! We don’t bite, promise.
tl;dr:

Hey guys, we’ve been made aware through various channels that about two weeks ago Mozilla changed their policies on Extension Signing—something that we were never notified about, even given that we had reviews open at the time—and we were able to get our extension signed without re-writing it, contrary to what we had been told earlier by Mozilla volunteers.
Anyway, without further ado, we’re proud to present a version of New XKit that works with Firefox 43! Nothing else has changed, it’s literally exactly the same extension you have installed, but working. You’ll still have to download it directly from our github for now because Mozilla won’t show it on their store, but that’s a minor inconvenience in the long run, and we’re working on addressing it.
Anyway, let us know if you have any questions! And as always, if you got any trouble with XKit, you are welcome to join our support chat room. (hosted on gitter, if you want to join with a github account)
Afternoon reblog!
