»Technical toss»Scientifically accelerate the access speed of Firefox official expansion center
Speed up browsing in Firefox Extension Center by modifying the system hosts file
preface
In recent days, I found that the webpage entering Firefox Extension Center was loaded slowly, just like climbing over a wall. Is this cute little fox also blocked by China?At Firefox Bar, many people had similar feelings. By contrast, the official staff provided solutions and reasons.
Solution
Enter this address:C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc, and then you will seehosts, edit it, and add the following code at the bottom
If you cannot save, exit the resource manager and open it with administrator privileges
reason
After this, many people discussed whether Firefox would follow Google's lead and be blocked by China.But the official explained that
Mozilla's CDNs are all in the same service provider EdgeCast (note: EdgeCast has been completely blocked), so basically all CDN servers are hit.Xxx.cdn.mozilla.net needs to be manually parsed to 117.18.232.191.For example, MDN's 117.18.232.191 developer.cdn.mozilla.net
A sigh of relief, not to be shielded...
Postscript
In fact, Firefox is one of the few companies that has significant strength abroad and has never been blocked at home, so it suddenly slows down this time. Yes, Firefox users are extremely sensitive, but in my opinion, Mozilla [Mo Zala] has never done anything incompatible with China, so China should not trouble a foundation
