Clear URL for Pale Moon & Basilisk

Good Day Community,

Don't know how may of you are familiar with this add-on, but I think we need one for Pale Moon and Basilisk. It removes tracking elements from the url

(Untested)

https://github.com/diegocr/CleanLinks

And if not that, I'd imagine there are others out there.

ClearURLs has no install.rdf file in its archive, so it is a webextension. It would be useless for Pale Moon.
CleanLinks release file does not seem to be an .xpi file.

Extract (X) the files from the ZIP into some directory, say c:/tmp/.

The ZIP will extract itself into a directory named, /CleanLinks-2.7.0/.
So c:/tmp/CleanLinks-2.7.0/.

Change into that directory.

CD \tmp\clean*

Zip up the contents of that directory, naming it *.xpi.

ZIP cleaner_up_yal.xpi * -r

Drag cleaner_up_yal.xpi into PM.

:-).

Perhaps there is a language barrier, but your instructions are a bit difficult to understand. :think:

Well, those instructions are oriented to using the command line.

For some that don't involve the command line, see here.
