Did Perapera stop working for anyone else?

I use the Perapera add-on for Firefox to annotate Chinese.  It's great.  However, a while back it stopped working.  I've tried upgrading FF, reinstalling, and nothing works.  Is it just me, or did this happen to other people?  What do you use instead?

Works OK with Firefox 42.

 

Cannot resist a quote from August:

 

Vellocet said -- Let this teach you not to upgrade Firefox until your plugins have been upgraded, too.  Firefox has gone off the deep end and no longer develops for its users.

Yeah, I know.     I upgraded as a last resort.  You've got a memory like my girlfriend.  I deliberately didn't upgrade, and perapera stopped working all on its own.  I was still using the same version of FF I was when I wrote that. 

 

The reddit thread seemed like a promising solution, but I tried it and it didn't work.    Installed from the .jar file and everything.  The only effect was that the Perapera icon disappeared from the bar, though it still appears in the list of installed add-ons.  Oh well, at least I know it's not just me.

If you go to Perapera website, there is a new version that does work. It stopped working for me when FF upgraded, after a while Perapera came up with a solution but it wasn't approved by FF so it wasn't on the "official" list of upgrades but it does work.

 

It is now approved have a look here http://www.perapera.org/
