On September 24, a new version of macOS, Mojave, was released. And along with it came Safari 12, which now supports installing extensions only from the Mac App Store. I had to make an app with an extension.
The problem of selecting text inside a link in Webkit/Blink engines has existed for a long time. At least for me. Somehow I missed that it could be solved with a browser extension. I found such an extension, called Select like a Boss. But it was only for Firefox, Opera (Blink), and Chrome. Since the source code for the Chrome extension was available on GitHub, I simply took the js code and packaged it as a Safari extension. Now I'm happy and can properly select text inside links :)
Source code + download link: GitHub.
Updated the Safari extension. It now shows 5 releases in the toolbar instead of 3. And the design now matches Safari 8.
I stop by Funkysouls from time to time looking for new music. I scroll through the first few pages, check the tags to see whether it might be interesting, then copy the artist name, go to VK or Yandex.Music, paste it there, and listen to a couple of tracks. If I like it, only then do I try to get the album.
I got tired of all that copy-pasting and wrote a Safari extension (I had been wanting to learn how for a while).
The extension does only 2 things:
If you want, you can take the extension code from end.js and button.css, paste it into something like the Control Freak extension in Chrome, and get the same 2 Play buttons in Chrome. I assume you could do the same in Firefox through Greasemonkey.
