Install this plugin. It's legit, it got banned from all of the well known github-likes so they have to host it on ru

    Installation

    Download the latest release by xpi-file from GitFlic, go to downloads and install the add-on (or drag it from your file-manager anywhere on a page/tab in Firefox).

    No source code whatsoever. Thanks but no thanks.

    No source code whatsoever.

    Don't spread 0-effort misinformation. It takes 20 seconds to find the source.

    There is a zip with the full project for ff and chrome respectively, which you can compile yourself and verify and read.

    Their strategy is to "hide" it because of the years long dmca takedowns. Read the wikipedia page on that if you want some extra info.

    I use it on mobile. Works like it's supposed to.

    I dont use firefox

    Idk if the chrome version works on mobile.

    If you want to get rid of nearly all the paywalls, now you have a reason to switch.
