No thanks. I don't want a product that just enriches the already-rich.

@thezerobit for a good "lighter earlier Firefox" feel you might want to look at #Palemoon

It doesn't support some of the more recent web standards, but it is actively maintained and quite performant

@65_percenter How do we as end users (technical or not) make informed choices as to the security of a given browser?

Is Helium more or less secure than unGoogled Chromium.

Is unGoogled Chromium more or less secure than Chromium.

Is Chromium more or less secure than Chrome.

Is LibreWolf more or less secure than Firefox.

How do SeaMonkey, Waterfox and Palemoon compare to what their parent project has become.

All rhetorical I guess.

Some time ago Mozilla decided that tabs had to be on top.

I still know where I want my tabs, and it still disturbs me that the tabs are in the wrong place.

I have just spent a peaceful retro hour or so browsing with Palemoon. Tabs in the right spot and coloured icons to ease the stress on my ageing eyes.

Just like SeaMonkey.

Why do "UX experts" these days have to constantly keep reminding us older folk that we cannot have what we need?

#PaleMoon 34.2.2 has been released! This minor release fixes a crash that can be triggered by a certain extension by backing out an erroneous backporting of a security fix, as well as fixing more applicable security bugs from the Mozilla security advisory that couldn't make it in the previous minor release.

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?
