I want my old extensions back! So what if version 57 is faster? version 56 was fast enough for me. 12 out of my 18 installed extensions will not work in 57 and I do not want to go without. So please re-enable support for the legacy extensions!

Unfortunately there is nothing that we, volunteer contributors on this support forum, can do about it …….

You are definately not the only one who wants to keep using these add-ons that haven't been migrated to Webextensions, but Mozilla has given the developers ample time to get there extensions migrated.
