| 2023-07-10 | Firefox user 12995607 | | The extension rewrites the URL to http://«ip»/«hostname»/, and I assume some internal magic to remove the hostname from the path again and to set the correct Host: header. The problem with this approach is that it breaks some sites; href="/foo", src="/assets/bla.css" removes the /hostname part from the URL, causing these kind of links to break. I would be interested in a version of this that does not rewrite the URL, but I can imagine that will be hard to do within Firefox' extension API. |
