Blacklisting does not work
See original GitHub issueI’m opening this issue because:
- I’ll report a bug
- I’ll propose a new feature
Description
Even after blacklisting https://duckduckgo.com/, I still have Vim Vixen extension enabled. I can use Shift + Esc to disable it, but it is not permanent. I have seen a similar Issue saying you have to restart the browser in order for the settings to apply, but it doesn’t work for me.
Steps to Reproduce
- Add
"blacklist": [ "https://duckduckgo.com/" ]
to the JSON - Go to https://duckduckgo.com/
- The Vim-like shortcuts provided by DuckDuckGo does not work anymore. To make them work again, press Shift + Esc
System configuration
- Operating system: Ubuntu 19.10
- Firefox version: 73.0
- Vim-Vixen version: 0.27

Firefox 75.0 on Linux, I was struggling with this as well, however it seems like the solution is not to include the protocol and just type the FQDN, so:
