#Firefox 116 abandoned macOS 10.15 & Win 7/8/8.1 on 2023-08-01.
Old OSes get an Extended Support Release instead.

#FirefoxESR 115.x will continue adding only serious security fixes (not features/stability/etc) through probably 2024-07, if longevity of the previous ESR branch 102.x is any indication.

"more than a year" from 115.0 on 2023-07-04.

Sicherheitsupdates: #Firefox und #FirefoxESR gegen mögliche Attacken gerüstet | Security https://www.heise.de/news/Sicherheitsupdates-Firefox-und-Firefox-ESR-gegen-moegliche-Attacken-geruestet-9180185.html #Patchday

A useful explanation of the differences between "normal" #Firefox and #FirefoxESR

BTW, while most GNU/Linux distros install Firefox in a default install, #Debian installs FirefoxESR by default.

@AubreyDeLosDestinos U mnie to okołoośmioletnia laptopica. Słaby procesor (2x1,5 GHz), więc „na pokładzie” jedna z „lżejszych” dystrybucji Linuxa, czyli „Beryllium”, najnowsza wersja BunsenLabs opartego na Debianie

Prąd „żarło” pisanie tutaj i słuchanie muzyki, raz z Yewtu.be, raz z przeglądarkowego Spotify w Firefoxie ESR.

@linuxnews_de oh ha. Kommt auf die Distri an. Updates ziehen, Microcode, Firewall, büschn hier büschn da, sakura als Terminal, #fishshell als shell, #librewolf , #torbrowser, #freetube , #firefoxesr mit Addons wie #ublocorigin , #LocalCDN , #ClearURL , #SkipRedirect , #canvasblocker , #JShelter, user.js usw, #balenaEtcher, eine wenig Theming und Wallpaper ändern. Des woars...

@anthonyg It's why I've been a #gnulinux user for 20+ years. On most GNU/Linux distributions #Firefox or else #FirefoxESR is the browser installed by default. Of course you're free to install other browsers if you want and nobody will nag you about doing so.

More and more #Microsoft, it's operating system, browsers etc. are becoming ad platforms.

@izaya Still on old #FirefoxESR, is that mandatory? It'd make #uMatrix use quite a bit more obnoxious.

It also reminds me to check up again on #Nyxt to see how it has gotten along regarding #WebExtensions or uMatrix-like features, which were really the last few I need before finally dropping Firefox...

Bonsoir à toi Fedivers o/

Je ne sais pas si d'autre personne ont rencontré ce petit bug bizarre sur Debian bullseye 11.6 :

Suite à la mise à jour de Firefox en version 102.7.0esr, les extensions uMatrix et uBlock Origin n’étaient plus fonctionnelles (voir images).

Une désinstallation / réinstallation des susmentionnées extensions règle le problème mais c'est tout de même bizarre 🤔

#FirefoxESR on #PureOS on the #Librem5 has (finally) been updated to 91.6. This renders the installed firefox-esr-mobile-config package non-working, but while we're waiting for an update to land, you can (assuming you have git and build-essential installed) just do the following:
`git clone https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/mobile-config-firefox`
`cd mobile-config-firefox`
`make`
`sudo make install`.

Firefox may need one (or more) restart, but after that it should look like in my photo:

#Debian #Firefox news: #FirefoxESR 91.4.0 has been accepted for testing, so we should see it moving to stable pretty soon. Same goes for #Thunderbird btw.
