Hi all, thanks for all the feedback/comments about twitch. Looks like we are all on the same page with the twitch embedding.

Version 3.1.8.54 is on the way (publishing it right now).

From here on twitch by default will be linkified but not embedded. However there is an option (somewhere in the settings) to toggle embedding twitch.

Coffee for all, hope you like it strong and hot!

Hiya Ryan M

Yeah it's been quiet but I think that's largely due to me. I haven't been active on RS for some time now. Though I still check out the forums daily, my interests have been focused elsewhere.

I'm still maintaining Linkify and I will be adding more features. It's just I've slowed down and it's been really nice to do so. Linkify has proved to be stable (every time I say that something happens). I'm really happy with my current build. After all the time I have put in, it's nice to just let it run for a while.

So yep it's kind of quiet, and I brought that about. I feel the timing is right and it's all good. For the first time I feel like I'm using it, not testing it.


I'm glad to have got the twitch thing sorted, never been keen on the way they do things but I always try to keep my own personal bias out of Linkify.


I haven't encountered the claims of fishy or phishy links, but I haven't been spending time in the RS-social-verse. No fishy links in my universe


The Adventurer's Log 3D Viewer UI looks really nice! RuneApps has always produced high quality tools, awesome standards imo. Nice to see a collaboration between fansites. Looks like it would have been a fun project. Thanks for the links, I really like seeing stuff like this.


You take care and I hope all is well for you

I am doing very well. A vacation from the game, local life and most social activities for most of the beginning of the month felt good. It was as good as this 1935 Duesenberg SJ and the rest of their collection we saw in Illinois. Sounds like you are doing very well indeed. I've glad to hear it
Car looks beautiful btw!

Hey Indy, hope you're well

So I've been discussing some stuff with a friend. He believes Linkify isn't safe because you could perhaps inject code to the log in screen or something in order to record our keystrokes and steal our acc details, but I told him that Linkify doesn't have the permissions to run on the log in screen and then he said "How can you be so sure?", and then I couldn't answer because I checked Linkify's permissions and saw this

Log in screen is "secure.runescape.com" as well as the actual forums. I also noticed that "RS Linkify settings" appear on right click menu when browsing the forums but not on the log in screen, but that could easily be changed with a Linkify update to disappear/appear whenever.

So if both pages are under "secure.runescape.com", how can I be sure Linkify isn't running in the log in screen?

Please don't take this the wrong way because I trust you fully and I'll continue to use this amazing extension forever, but I feel like my argument against him is losing strength and I find myself unable to counter his.

Thanks

Hiya Morgypie

I'm not getting the bit where you say the forums run on ht tps. After logging in the domain is services .runescape.com not secure .runescape.com.

Linkify doesn't run on secure pages, I have not given it permission to do so. If I change the permissions for the urls/domains, or any permission at all (something I have never done) Linkify wont update. You get message from chrome stating the permissions have changed and showing what the changes are. You can then either accept or decline.

The permissions I have set are very strict, this makes changing anything impossible without the user's consent. I can't 'sneak' in a change like that, and even if I could, I wouldn't.

The screenie you posted shows exactly this, that's the only domain Linkify is allowed to run on. If it said

ht tps://secure.runescape.com

then it could run on log in screens.

I'm not sure what else I can say, the source is not obfuscated, in fact quite the opposite. It's so heavily commented it's like a reading a story. Anyone can view it, and it's really not hard to read.

Aside from that, I'm very comfortable with the fact some people don't trust it. Doesn't bother me in the slightest.

In fact I can say with all honesty from day one, I have never encouraged anyone at all to install Linkify. I rather people don't use it if they are not comfortable and I have no intention of trying to convince anyone they should use it.

I can't deny there is an element of trust (built up over many years) that all Linkify users have put in me. It's something I take very seriously and also something I cherish. I can't be any more open about what I do, as I hide nothing. I feel good about it, my Linkify family is happy and I am too

Continued on next page.

Edit: missing comma, lucky I wasn't writing code
