Addon refusing to install

I don't know if this is the correct section to post in because I have no idea what's the difference between plugin and an extension.
Anyway, I have this _something_ https://www.nightdev.com/betterttv/# installed and it worked and works fine, but when I tried to install it again, a popup showed up saying it was not compatible with PM 25.1.2.0 or whatever the current version is.
Could anyone take a look at it and tell me what's wrong?

It's an extension (*.xpi) and it has a minimum requirement of FX 26 (while Pale Moon identifies as FX 24.9).

You could ask the extension developer to add specific support for Pale Moon. Especially if the extension already works as-is, then all they have to do is add a Pale Moon target application block to the install.rdf file in the extension with the proper Pale Moon versions (Minimum 25.0, maximum 25.* (or higher if they feel adventurous and want to look forward a long time))

Thank you.
I am sure I will get the finger and a message saying it's not a problem on their end, though.

Hah. Well, in that case it's the problem of the user wanting to install extensions to begin with.

Just as I thought.
We won't be adding Pale Moon support at this time, as it would require maintaining an additional package for download. Pale Moon broke their compatibility with the Firefox add-ons, which broke a ton of add-ons for Pale Moon You can probably use Greasemonkey and use the UserScript version of BetterTTV instead.

Already tried that what they told me to do was download script version for all browsers.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... /versions/

download 1.15 then go and click download for another browser and choose userscript.
