There are often other extensions that we find too precious to delete them, however we need them only at specific occasions. For those, I came up with a “meta-extension” to easily disable or enable them:

Something I miss in Firefox, is that the webextensions `management` api does not allow to toggle off/on extensions other than themes. It's no secret that some of the most popular browser extensions require a wide range of permissions to work, while being useful only occasionally. This restriction prevents to have on Firefox a quick toggler without leaving the page like (author here) https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/extension-manager/...

I think the improvement goes beyond greenery information, although the latter is the most obvious. If looking carefully, one can also spot a significant improvement regarding water surfaces. Those are useful reference points. Granted, they are often outside of where people are living, but this is part of a process making the map more accurate and probably more automated than before, which is a laudable thing. In my opinion the new map is also more pleasant to the eye and all in all, I would rather use it over the old one.

Couldn't you use unpkg.com for this?

"type n -> press down -> press enter to get to hacker news".
It's even shorter as you can skip the "press down" step. At least in Chrome and Firefox.
