Save / transfer existing Mozilla add-ons before they are deleted!

[nimanima]

Hi, I have just been informaed by the developer of Too Many Tabs Add-ons for Firefox, (which works in an older version also with the current Pale Moon version) that by the end of 2016 Firefox will end its support for XBL/XUL/XPCOM based addons which will affect - according to the Mozillazine Forum - practically all existing Add-ons. They will cease to work on the new Firefox versions. Since Pale Moon is based on the original Firefox style most of the Firefox add-ons are compatibel, if not the current version, older versions might work. And since you emphasize that Pale Moon is not to follow suit Firefox in copycat-ing Chrome but want to maintain the old original classic style, I would like to ask whether there will be a way you upload also the Mozilla Add-ons to your own website, as I fear, once Mozilla has dropped support, they will delete all add-ons that don't match their ideas, and then there will be no longer a way for Pale Moon users to download them.

I refer to these information:

Speaking just to the first part of your question --
AMO is an acronym for Mozilla's add-ons repository (Addons.Mozilla.Org):

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/extensions/?sort=users

We have our own datastore of extensions from AMO.. The entire state of extensions on AMO since late 2014 with updates in late 2015 for those extensions that were in active use by users at the time.. I have explained this before in another thread.
