Update notification always appears聽#751

Description

@uthbees

馃悰 Description

The update notification appears when the extension updates even though I have the "update notification" box unchecked.

馃攢 Steps To Reproduce

Due to the nature of the bug there's not an easy way to reproduce it (at least not for me without a dev environment and so on). I guess you could always just uncheck the box and wait for a normal update, and if you ever get a notification after that, there's the bug. Or, potentially more reliably, wipe the extension's data so you're starting with a fresh install, since the problem could be with the default behavior showing the notification as disabled but not actually disabling it properly.

鉁旓笍 Expected behavior

If the "update notification" box is unchecked, I should not get an update notification.

馃捇 Details

Experienced on:

  • Linux Mint 22.3 - Firefox 149.0
  • Linux Mint - Chrome
  • Android - Firefox
  • Android - Kiwi Browser

I can get the other version numbers if you want but I don't think it's relevant.

馃摑 Additional context

I've experienced this bug for a long time on all my devices - probably at least 6 months or so, maybe longer.

    Hi @uthbees, thanks for reporting the issue and including so much detail! I have found the bug and it will be included in the next version, so if you have the option turned off it should honor your choice and not show the notification anymore.
