Bad news, Safari users: Apple is breaking all directly downloaded .safariextz extensions with the release of Safari 12 later this year.
Apple has been pushing extension developers toward Safari App Extensions for a few years now. These are extensions that come bundled with applications downloading from the Mac App Store, but the gallery of Safari extensions in the Mac App Store is kind of pathetic.
So it should come as no surprise that Apple’s list of upcoming Safari extensions includes this little excerpt:
Support for developer-signed .safariextz Safari Extensions in Safari 12 on macOS has been removed. They no longer appear in Safari preferences and cannot be enabled.
On first launch users will receive a warning notification and these extension will not load.
In plain English this means that extensions downloaded from the web, outside of the Extension Gallery and the App Store, will no longer work in Safari…
