Send to Readwise does not render for reddit on firefox about comments-to-readwise HOT 7 CLOSED

My title was inaccurate. It does not render for Reddit on Firefox. Other tests passed

from comments-to-readwise.

I wasn't aware of anyone else actually using it.

Thanks again for the quick fix. And I recommend you make a Show HN post once the firefox extension is approved. I think lots of people would like to archive insightful comments on HN/reddit as well. My flow is comments -> readwise -> obsidian.

I'm using the manual install option from https://github.com/marcus-crane/comments-to-readwise#firefox-users

Maybe this will auto-resolve when Firefox supports Manifest v3?

Hi there,

I'm not sure I understand the scope of the issue since your message is a bit contradictory 😅

You said it does work for Hacker News using Firefox, which would imply the button does appear.

Do you mean that other sites besides HN are working in Chrome but not Firefox?

Ah ok, I'll have a look 🙂

Oh! I had forgotten about the state of this extension a bit since I wasn't aware of anyone else actually using it.

At one point, I rewrote it to be easier to extend to new sites going but I hadn't actually ported over the Reddit code: https://github.com/marcus-crane/comments-to-readwise/blob/main/src/content-scripts/sites/reddit-old.ts

The reason it doesn't work is because there's no code for it to execute hah.

It should be easy enough to port over though. The reason it works in Chrome is because that's technically running an older version as there is no automatic update process set up for this extension (yet)

Hi there,

I've reintroduced the parsing code for old.reddit.com and rewritten it slightly to use the Reddit API instead of extracting content from the page

You can find the latest release for Firefox as an XPI here: https://github.com/marcus-crane/comments-to-readwise/releases/tag/2.1.0

It'll probably be a week or two until you can just install from the store and get auto updates due to the holiday closedowns
