Firefox Extension for LET (fixes some issues imo)

Hi guys !

Due to BlackFriday I'm lately pretty active at @RackNerd's BF party-thread, but this works for any huge thread

The amount of posts is huge (I feel like 3/4 are spam but let's not discuss that..)
The Issue I have is that I have no idea what's relevant or not, if someone replies to me I do get a notification but i have 600 of them, plus when @dustinc sends a message I don't see it because there are just so many messages, it's hard to catch.

anyways, so with some encouragment from @MooCowGalaxy @JerryPaml @denellum and whoever else I forgot, I made a simple firefox plugin that makes messages more visible, it's very simple and open source !

you can download it here: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/tcw-let-fixes/
just try and if you like it, keep it, if you don't remove.

Source Code: https://github.com/TheChemicalWorkshop/TCW-LET-Fixes
feel free to make a merge request.

I'm not a JS dev, so the code/css is terrible but imo it makes using the forum easier.

let me know what you think !

    Can you make one now that blocks anything that mentions RackNerd or DustinC?

    Bonus points if it can pickup on any phrase that he requests users spam and blocks further posts with that phrase as well.

    Posts regarding his pending charges can be exempt because that's pure lulz.

    feel free to add, as long as it has on-off button i'll accept, im thinking of adding a way to block users so you never see their posts

    Consider installing IceRaven, it supports a lot of desktop extensions, has about:config, and other advanced features removed in recent Firefox android versions.

    I was curious so i tried

    When in "desktop mode"
    It highlights messages

    No right click function tho

    When in normal mode (mobile) messages are not highlighted and right click does not work either
