I think named vulnerabilities are useful when it's a "STOP THE WORLD" kind of vulnerability like Heartbleed and Shellshock. It's much easier to talk about Heartbleed than "CVE-2014-0160".
The problem, IMO, is when medium-severity vulnerabilities are given names, like Terrapin. I think it makes people think a vulnerability is much worse than it really is.
Same. I still use the old app on my iPhone. Syncing to Dropbox and iCloud no longer works. I periodically export to pdf as a backup. I have nine years of notes in that pdf.
At some point an iOS update is going fully break the app, but I'm still hanging on.

IIRC the Dissenter extension was just that, albeit centralized.
There's an extension called Epiverse that does something similar. It used to have its own comment sections like Dissenter, but has since shifted to just showing discussions on reddit/HN that point to the webpage you're currently on. It's actually how I discovered HN.
