@FelisCatus It this is ever implemented, Firefox branch of this extension will become completely different from Chrome and no way back.

@Rictusempra The current implementation is already different from Chrome and we're already experiencing different behaviors. However, I do believe that moving to the onRequest API will solve more issues than it creates and that should be the way forward.

v2.5.16 released with the new API (Firefox ONLY).

So pac mode on v2.5.20, the latest version downloaded from firefox site, works for Firefox?

It looks it doesn't in my environment. But my pac config works fine if configured in the configure / proxy settings, but not so convenient compared to SwitchyOmega.

By the way, thank you for your awesome work, so we could breath some free air.

See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/proxy/ProxyInfo
"direct": don't proxy the request. If this value is given, all other properties of this object are ignored. However, this setting doesn't override any proxy set by the user

Choose No proxy in Connection Settings will solve this problem
