I use Arch, btw
A faithful Firefox port
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════
Embrace the meme. Share your love for Arch Linux
with every website you visit by appending
"I-use-Arch-btw" to your browser's User-Agent on
every outgoing request.
This is a Firefox port of Aleksandersen's
original Chrome extension, rebuilt from the
ground up for Firefox with extra features and
performance tuning.
────────────────────────────────────────────────
What it does
────────────────────────────────────────────────
Status — Toggle the extension on/off, see
your live User-Agent with the suffix
highlighted, copy it to clipboard,
and pick Light or Dark theme.
Stats — Counter of how many announcements
you've made (locale-aware formatting),
days you've been spreading the meme,
and a Brag button that copies a
shareable summary for social media.
Trophies — Permanent trophy case with 8
ranks from First Convert to AUR
Legend. Trophies persist forever —
resetting the counter never clears
them. Hover any unlocked trophy to
see the date you earned it.
Credits — Attribution to the original Chrome
extension author, the port author,
and the Arch trademark notice.
────────────────────────────────────────────────
Privacy
────────────────────────────────────────────────
No data collection. Nothing leaves your browser.
The User-Agent modification happens locally,
right before each request leaves Firefox. All
state (counter, trophies, preferences) lives in
your browser's local storage and is never
transmitted anywhere.
Declared formally via
data_collection_permissions: ["none"] in the
manifest, surfaced to you at install time.

Changelog
────────────────────────────────────────────────
1.0.7 — Bug fixes ──────────────────────────────────
─── 1.0.6 ─────────────────────────────────────
- Fixed a race condition that could reset the
site counter to ~0 on Firefox startup. The
webNavigation listener used to fire before
the stored state had finished loading,
causing the saved count to be overwritten
with a fresh increment. The handler now waits
for storage to load before counting.
─── 1.0.5 ─────────────────────────────────────
Major feature release
─── 1.0.4 ─────────────────────────────────────
- Added Firefox port author credit (R2 Titan)
alongside the original author (Aleksandersen).
─── 1.0.3 ─────────────────────────────────────
- Popup remembers your last open tab within a
Firefox session. Resets to Status on restart.
─── 1.0.2 ─────────────────────────────────────
- Performance overhaul. Disabling fully
unregisters the request listener. Site
counter moved off the blocking webRequest
path. Hot path tightened.
─── 1.0.1 ─────────────────────────────────────
- Counter updates instantly. Storage debounce
reduced. AMO validation warnings cleared.
strict_min_version bumped to Firefox 140.
─── 1.0.0 ─────────────────────────────────────
- Initial release. Faithful port of the
original Chrome extension by Aleksandersen.

1.0.7 — Bug fixes ──────────────────────────────────
Fixed the counter briefly showing 0 when
opening the popup — it now reads from storage
instantly instead of waiting on the
background script.

single letter could end up alone on a line.
The "I-use-Arch-btw" suffix now stays
together as one unit.
