I will check out the extension on my pc tomorrow. For now I'll just say good luck with your project! I have to ask though, do you really have to go by Xkit? It feels kinda weird to co-opt another person's project like that. Even if you're basing this on the old Xkit, maybe consider making your own brand?

A couple other people have shared your concern. This is a fairly common practice in the world of opensource software, and services like github (where we and the original XKit Guy host our source code) allow you to edit other people’s software easily by “forking” it into your own directory. If you look at the github page, you’ll see that there are 72 forks of XKit, meaning 72 people have created their own offshoot version. XKit Guy uploaded his sourcecode to github with the intent of letting people do this.

Additionally, XKit is GPL-licensed, which grants users/other developers the right to share, copy, and modify the software. XKit Guy would have released his software under a more restrictive license if he were uncomfortable with this.

I hope this assuages your concerns!

I managed to install the xkit, then using xCloud to get all my settings. But once I restarted Chrome, it told me that Chrome had disabled this xkit because it's not listed on Chrome's store. I can't 'Enable' the xkit back on. Any help?

I can’t actually test this because this isn’t an issue on Linux, but the internet says that ticking “developer mode” in the extensions page should allow you to re-enable the extension. Please send us an ask with how this works.

The other solution would be to download the Developer’s version of Chrome, but that’s a little extreme. We’ll probably start the process of getting this on the Chrome store very soon if this continues to be an issue.

You guys are an absolute GODSEND. I do have one question, though - I'm photosensitive and rely heavily on the gif freezing extension for my Tumblr comfort. I'd really rather not upgrade until I know that it works in your guys' update. Can you confirm if it's functional on Firefox yet?

I just checked, and it will freeze gifs, but the “hide posts with gifs entirely” option doesn’t work (and makes gifs move again). We’ll make an announcement when this is fixed.

Thank you so much for updating xkit! One of the main things I've noticed about the state of the extension as it stands is the greyed out font for many of the profile viewed extensions (similar to, dashboard stats etc.). Are you guys working on fixes for those?

We just fixed this for Post Archiver, Tag Replacer, XInbox, and XStats. You might have to manually hit “update” in the extensions browser to see the changes. Please tell us if we missed anything!

Is there any way you could put this on the chrome store? Chrome only allows extensions from their store, and disables anything else

Chrome is actually lying to you when it gives that notification. If you open the extensions page and drag the .crx file into it, Chrome should install the extension, even though it will try to tell you otherwise. Step-by-step instructions and more information can be found here, if you need it.

We’ll get it on both Firefox’s and Chrome’s addon stores once we fix a bunch more stuff (old XKit really wasn’t that stable), but until then this should work. If you try the above and it’s still not working, shoot us another ask.
