Re: firefox thing fixed maybe

AAh, well that will explain then why people have addons that do not work anymore.

Its a pitty some of these are not updated anymore.

However if ff is that bad I will be switching to waterfox which still uses the old gecco engine however its not mozilla though it still gets updates.

Its good to know that if mozilla doesn't play ball I can switch to another brouser that will.

Ofcause this thing may be lagging behind so eventually it may upgrade to the newer interface.

Hi.

I have noticed on firefox that a lot of addons I use say legacy though
they work including navigation sounds, better privacy and noscript, does
this mean they are not being maintained or something.

However on that note, has anyone tried to use waterfox instead of firefox.

I tried it for a bit, and it seems to be a likely choice with all addons
working if mozilla doesn't get its a into g then it maybe another option
for us at least for the moment unless those guys upgrade to the crazy
engine mozilla is going to do.

From pages it appears they use the old style firefox engine and
interfaces from 55x maybe they are a port.

addons and settings from firefox should work on there.

It may be an option.
