Classic Add-ons Archive - PM Tools

Why not add Classic Add-ons Archive to the Tools section of the website? It's fairly relevant to new users.

It's a crutch. While CAA has value, certainly, it is also not something that will endure because the extensions in it are not made for Pale Moon.
Native Pale Moon add-ons is the way to go.

Also, JustOff explicitly wanted it only listed as an external and in the category of "Other". However, it is still going to be of tremendous value for its historical content as well as for Basilisk (that is why I added it to the Discover pane in the Add-ons Manager for Basilisk). Though, Basilisk should also get forks like Pale Moon where possible just there isn't a GUID change because Basilisk is going to stay 98% Firefox-ish forever.. At least UI wise.

Don't forget that one CAN make extensions that support both or more than JUST a Phoenix-class Browser.

EDIT: Did you mean the tools menu on the main site?

That's what I understood, yes.

This caught my eye because I have been trying out Puppy Tahr on a flash.
It comes loaded with Pale Moon 25, though no addons.
Loaded Disconnect, but was unable to find an appropriate UBlock Origin.

I just noticed there are legacy versions of ABLatitude. I'll try those.
