Bonjour,
Depuis que Mozilla a vendu son âme à la pieuvre Google (2016), je n'utilise que des forks de Firefox : Icecat sur Windows & Icecaven sur Android.
Votre application (.apk) tourne bien sur Lineage OS (Android 14) mais votre greffon de navigateur (.xpi) ne peut pas être configuré, ni en créant un nouveau profil (reste bloqué au stade 2) ni en important les données d'un compte existant (l'importation ne se fait pas) : il semblerait y avoir un gros problème avec le webview.
N'étant pas développeur, je n'arrive pas à savoir si cela vient de votre code, de celui du navigateur ou si c'est parce que j'utilise un serveur Nextcloud chiffré (cncloud). Sur Windows, heureusement, votre greffon Floccus tourne à merveille.
Le jour où ce problème sera résolu, je vous verserai un don - promis ! -, car je l'aime votre application, je l'utilise depuis longtemps, maintenant.
Thanks to the author.
