Tip for those of you using a browser in the #Mozilla family you can get a list is all the different "about" pages that you're browser can display.

Probably some vocal evangelist will get up in the arms again ( *sigh* ) but this #Mozilla #Firefox project seems quite sensible

'The most obvious change is how rounded everything is. Tabs, the address bar, and the toolbar no longer sit as separate flat strips—they form a single floating island at the top of the browser.
The sidebar toggle and the web content area follow the same rounded design language, and even elements on the new tab page get the same treatment.'

Alllright, hello lunarians! We've moved instances again (4 hours has to be a world record for shortest stay in a #Mastodon before migrating :P), and hopefully this will be the final time we will do that. It would be a shame, because "Outer Heaven" does sorta fit more for a #browser named "Pale Moon"! ;)
So, with a permanent #fediverse home, here's the short #introduction again done two instances ago on what #PaleMoon is all about:
We are one of the first projects out there to have forked from #Firefox / #Mozilla. We've started as a humble rebuild aiming to bring an optimized Firefox, but we've soon evolved into a full-fledged fork (hard fork if you will) which kept what we believe were the good stuff that Mozilla axed and didn't deserve axing, like #XUL (which we believe is the most powerful language for extending a browser, up to its internals), #RSS, and <style scoped>, and kept out the ones that we believe were not good for our userbase (like Pocket, the LLM cruft, and if you're old enough, Australis!). We aim to keep evolving this mature platform in order to keep up with the latest feature additions to the web as we reasonably can (even though we believe they're becoming increasingly silly) while, if possible and necessary, adding up some of our own. All of that, as an independent effort supported primarily by nothing else but you: the users!
If you want to explore more about our history, roadmap, and what you can do with this browser, then please give our website below a visit! 🌕

Wow, "open to brand messages" that's why I'm running #firefox, they sure got me figured out!
Firefox: Support für Windows 7, 8 und 8.1 nochmals verlängert
Eigentlich wollte Mozilla den Firefox-Stecker für Windows 7, 8 und 8.1 im Februar ziehen. Jetzt gibt es eine Verlängerung bis August 2026.
Lou LüederC'est sympa cette nouvelle feature de Firefox pour envoyer TOUT TON HISTORIQUE DE NAVIGATION à Google, Alibaba et OpenAI 🤡💩

Someone (and I cannot find that post in my feed again 😐) mentioned that after an update, the AI Kill Switch ("Block AI Enhancements") in Firefox was reset to "allow", even though the blurb states clearly that new stuff will be opt-in only.
I can confirm this.
Shame on you, Mozilla! I'll be switching to an alternative browser now.
FF 148.0 on Ubuntu Linux.
The exact moment software went downhill was when #mozilla changed away from this.

No pinta mal el nuevo diseño de UI de Firefox "Nova" (aun sin fecha de lanzamiento) https://www.soeren-hentzschel.at/firefox/exklusiv-so-sieht-das-neue-nova-design-von-firefox-aus
Pretty sad that because of letting #AI opposition people get a bigger say than actual users, #Mozilla #Firefox users are missing out on the best tool for browsing the web we have ever had. On Chrome, I am no longer limited by half baked extensions, or dark patterns in websites preventing me from using the website data, or websites which dont give me the features I ask for.

So it’s not all bad, surely.
