Github not displaying Assets(loads indefinitely)

[lucas_jooj]

As title says, Github doesn't display assets under the download/releases tab in the right of the page for any project. It simply keeps loading indefinitely as shown on screenshot attached(left, Chrome latest stable, right Pale Moon 31.2.0.1) Tested UR on the screenshot is https://github.com/Nheko-Reborn/nheko/r ... ag/v0.10.1 . I tried with other repos + with the same nheko link on mobile(chromium) and it loaded fine on Chromium but not PM. I do not have a github account.

Yes, the issue could not be fixed even after restarting PM in safe mode. I never used uMatrix, I'm on Wndows 11 21H2 and using the native user agent on the compatibility mode

Below is what I got from the Console on the inspect element thing, apologies if I copy-pasted wrongly as it's my first time submitting a report of this nature

Thanks and good Wednesday

The best workaround is to install the Palefill extension, but seeing that the releases page in GitHub is broken, it does lead to a chicken-and-egg problem... Here's a direct link to the xpi on GitHub, which you should be able to install: https://github.com/martok/palefill/rele ... l-1.20.xpi

I've also hosted a mirror of the xpi at http://job.tilde.team/palefill-1.20.xpi. Feel free to download both and confirm if my copy is legit.

I opened an issue at martok's repo about this problem.

Only if having more than one browser goes against your religions principles

Palefill is also available and mirrored at Fresco.

Off-topic:
Fresco works by taking the releases information via the GitHub API, so it doesn't require manual modifications from the author and functions essentially the same as an external.

I've noticed this happening with another extension, uBlock Origin when I changed out a hard drive running Windows 7 yesterday (Tuesday) and put a different SSD in an old laptop, an HP dv4-5113cl, to run the newest release of MX Linux 21.2.1 (Wildflower) Xfce. The same infinite loading of assets circle came into play where uBlock Origin cannot be installed anymore in Pale Moon.

I know for a fact this wasn't happening last month in August when I installed uBlock Origin for Pale Moon running in both the Linux Mint 21 and MX Linux 21 distros in my other four computers. I'm guessing Github changed something recently where this affects Pale Moon.

I had to load Adblock Latitude in Pale Moon to replace uBlock Origin. What Github has done recently for their site is going to cause a problem for any extension for Pale Moon which is hosted on Github.

Ah, I didn't know about that! I've suggested to Martok to use your site instead for the Install link.

Heh, I personally don't mind having to use another browser; I already do that sometimes. Though it certainly can be annoying for some users in this case...

Thanks, all the links you sent worked fine
It fix the issue with Github on the title, I hope this isn't the only way to fix this issue though, the add-on has no easy toggle on/off in the UI and so far I only have this Polyfill issue on that particular website and would like to keep it off most of the time; an add-on posted on Fresco (thanks for sharing btw, Franklin!) seemed promising but well, attachment related happens

I'm pretty sure it is very selective and only engages on known problematic sites and does nothing on others.

Oh, glad to hear, similar to how a plug-in works then? I was worried it could use up too much of my already limited RAM

[moonbat]

No, plugins are completely different from addons. Any experienced addon developer knows how to detect the current URL being visited and thus determine whether it is applicable to their addon.
