Sure, that's what everybody knows. But without going from generalities to details of a specific extension, we're just speculating idly.
So lets do a little review of the things I have installed in one of my firefox instances that aren't currently firefox 57 compatible... This is after I've dumped some rarely used things that I decided were unlikely to get an update.
Cookie Monster Seemed to have been removed from AMO and no obvious replacement. Download Manager (S3) Author reports it can't be ported due to lack of required APIs and the same presumably applies to the various similar extensions none of which show any sign of being ported. There are bugs open with mozilla for providing a toolbar API for this but they're not saying much other than "on the roadmap" which could mean anything. Extension List Dumper 2 Last update in January, no sign of an update or of an obvious replacement but only used occasionally. NoScript Supposedly getting a five-to-midnight fix and other options are available if that doesn't happen. NoSquint Plus Last update yesterday but no mention of WE plans on AMO page but Zoom Page WE is possible replacement. pdfit Ancient and only in use because the (better) extension I used to use to save as PDF stopped working. Will likely replace with screenshots once that has "whole page" mode working. Saved Password Editor Needs new APIs which are supposedly in the works but won't be available for 57 at least. Tab Groups Author has stated (in a long rant) that he is not going to port to WE and that in any case the APIs will probably always be too limited for it to be possible. View Cookies Last updated nearly two years ago with no signs of life and no obvious replacement.
