+# Potatoes Emojis Firefox WebExtension
+
+**This add-on replaces latest noto-emoji from Google with old "potatoes"(or "worms" or whatever you call it...) emojis from Android 6.0.1 on the Google website Messages for web.**
+
+## What it does
+
+This extension just includes:
+
+* a content script, "replace-emojis.js", that is injected into any pages under "messages.android.com" or any of its subdomains
+
+The content script intercept HTTP requests to the CDN hosting latest Noto emojis (ssl.gstatic.com) and redirect these requests to an archived version of the noto-emoji Github repository (commit 914c9ecb9d5e6d96c972c8df577cc6a36d162ece).
