Apparently #Cloudflare's captcha is broken because it requires implementation of a draft feature in WebGL (because obviously a CAPTCHA needs sophisticated 2D/3D graphics, duuuh): https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=32045&start=740#p272145

Nevermind the fact that bad scrapers will simply use WebDriver or Selenium (which again, #PaleMoon will never implement) to perfectly impersonate a Cloudflare-approved browser, rendering this "defense" (if it can even be called one) useless from the start. Worse than useless even, because it helps remove an independent player fighting for an #OpenWeb (unlike #Mozilla).

But nevermind all of that, because implementing the "missing WebGL context attribute" didn't even solve the CAPTCHA not working at all: https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/UXP/issues/3042

This is what the stock market players really invest in? Vaporware CAPTCHA?

Pale Moon - Release Notes

Job Bautista Apr 4

#Cloudflare is once again gatekeeping legitimate browsers like #PaleMoon, #Basilisk, and other #Goanna applications. Apparently refusing to implement something like WebDriver or Selenium which makes the browser a robot, doesn't matter at all to a supposed "anti-bot" challenge.

I don't think CF has ever fixed their #Turnstile breaking in #SeaMonkey either... It must be embarrassing that Google's reCAPTCHA does a better job than Cloudflare at this point in determining whether a browser is legitimate. Yes that Google which is notorious for user-agent sniffing. In the worst case scenario Google just manages to be annoying instead of not letting the user in at all.

Konform Browser 140.9.0-100 has been released!

See release notes for details.

https://codeberg.org/konform-browser/source/releases/tag/140.9.0.100

Besides latest security fixes from #mozilla there is a bunch of updates from #konform #browser. To name a few:

- Reorganized Security Settings with new global configuration for WASM, JIT, WebRTC, WebGPU, Geolocation, DOM Push, etc...

- Security Settings also expose UI for enabling First-Party Isolation (same behavior as Tor Browser) and tweaking Enhanced Tracking Protection.

- Bundled depropped Multi-Account Containers allows configuring per-container proxies and makes container tabs part of core browser experience without having to install telemetry-laden addons.

- Profile Import now supports importing profiles from #firefox and compatible #browsers (#firefox_esr, #floorp, #ironfox, #librewolf, #midori, #palemoon, #waterfox, #zenbrowser)

- Spoofing of Navigator.sendBeacon.

- #privacy improvements and defense-in-depth

- Various bugfixes and minor improvements

Can webmasters please not assume that HTTP/1.1 = bad scraper and think it's okay to block them indiscriminately? Browsers like #Dillo, #Lynx, #Links, and #NetSurf still only use HTTP/1.1, and I doubt they will ever adopt HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 due to how complex those two are. Hell I'm in #PaleMoon with HTTP/2 disabled, and along with #Basilisk their HTTP/1.1 implementation outperforms HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 for my internet connection since they preserved HTTP pipelining (which mainstream dropped because I guess they have skill issue trying to tune their pipelining implementations).

Pale Moon - Release Notes

Oblomov Feb 25

OK so apparently #Firefox 147 is the last one I'll have and use. I guess #WaterFox and #PaleMoon will be my next contenders as primary browsers. Any recommendations on what to use on #Android instead? I'm currently using #Fennec which is the Firefox port on #FDroid.
