Why the Hg?

Mozilla uses Mercurial (hg) instead of Git to manage their source, so -hg

What about firedragon-nightly?
Those who are experienced with Linux know that stands for Mercurial, and those will be the users that are more likely to want to use the developmental version.
Those that don't have a clue what that stands for are probably best to stick with the stable version anyways.

Why you ping dev?
Why don’t you read or search this thread first?

‘Not kept’ in what context? Not kept at all? Not kept after the browser is closed? after the tab is closed?
The functionality of some of the more useful cookie autodelete addons is that they will delete cookies for a tab or a specific domain as soon as you leave that domain (or some amount of seconds after you leave the domain/close the tab).
The benefit of this is that (1) its mostly automated, and requires little to no user intervention after setup (2) it doesn’t rely on closing the browser to clear cookies (something that a user might only do every few days).
Can the built in firefox cookie management do anything similar to this? When I last looked into it (years ago) I did not feel the builtin settings were granular enough.
I believe the extension I usually use is Cookie AutoDelete. You may want to test drive it and see if it adds value for you.

Just the package name changed, no worries 
Not kept = not kept after browser closing, if there is a way to handle this without addon Id rather go with this. Its explained in the first post how to setup:

Started learning about Firejail and it's cool that it sandboxes applications.
I'm trying to run Firedragon in Firejail as it already provide the preset for it. But I'm failing to run it:
╰─λ firejail /usr/lib/firedragon/firedragon %u
Reading profile /etc/firejail/firedragon.profile
Reading profile /etc/firejail/whitelist-usr-share-common.inc
Reading profile /etc/firejail/firedragon-common.profile
Error: cannot access profile file: firedragon-common-addons.inc

I just had a look at those & improved them using official Firefox firejail profiles as source.
This will be available in the next build, if you want to try it now just copy & paste the profiles from GitLab into /etc/firejail. Feedback is welcome
Edit: I have also opened a pull request at the firejail repo so it might work ootb in future

Firefox 88 has been released! This one is going to be a very interesting release 
- Fission (sandboxing) will be available in stable
- HTTP3 support can be enabled
- More parts of the browser are having ProtonUI reworked parts
Now on to waiting until patches are updated so FireDragon can be built

Sorry, this was not problem with Firedragon but was generic problem with other apps too along with Firejail. I think the reason would be either my hard drive or BtrFS error. This gets fixed as I fresh install the OS again so I have a workaround

I don't know what caused your issue, but be careful if you use system cleaners or Bleachbit even with default options

I got a question for you guys. What do you prefer? 
- Faster updates after Firefox released a new version + losing appmenu functionality for a while (will be updated once available)
- Waiting a bit longer for the new release without losing appmenu
There are timely updates for mostly everything but not the appmenu patch. I dont really get why this is not a standart feature anyway

I'm pretty indifferent, as long as I have a working FireDragon, I'm happy. 
But as I use stable, I suppose I would lean toward the second option.

I got everything ready to push the update (without appmenu) which is why Im asking. Lets see what the others think of this

I don't mind so much but I like faster updates... especially since they've been interesting, and my appmenu is lost already

IMO it's good to ship without one. It's always a nice feature, but people can manage without it for a bit, and the new firefox release would come with privacy and speed improvements that make the jump worth it

Alright, then we handle it this way. I mean there are lots of pros for updating timely
Besides, Librewolf and Plasmafox both do the same so it should be fine, in the end its just a visual thing and doesnt have real drawbacks. Build started then!
