Preferences not saved for ESR builds

Screenshot here.

As you can see, it won't let me switch to Google+ comments, the button for it is gone. If there isn't a reddit post made for the video it'll just say "no posts found" and I can't switch to normal YouTube comments.

Also, while it isn't as big a deal, it also says "commenting as: undefined" instead of my username.

Using Firefox 52.3 ESR.

You need to enable the switch to Google+ button in the options. Head to about:addons and click on options next to the entry for Reddit on YouTube. You can customize these settings there. Please let me know if this doesn't resolve your issue.

Ticking those options has no effect. After clicking 'save', then closing and reopening the options the boxes are unticked again.

I've been able to reproduce this issue specifically with the ESR build, thank you.

For version 52.3, you must manually enable the storage API used by Reddit on YouTube's preferences. Please follow these instructions:

1. Type about:config into the URL bar
2. Click "I accept the risk!"
3. Search storage.sync and double click webextensions.storage.sync.enabled so that its value is true

Great, that's fixed it. Thanks for actually finding the fix. Another dev of an add-on I had a problem with recently just said "oh well figure it out yourself". So thanks again for going to the length of solving this!
