Waterfox portable5/6/2023 This has the following benefits by not having two versions of Waterfox sharing resources: To make sure the projects aren't falling over each other, Waterfox Classic will now be moved out of the main Waterfox development repository and into its own separate repository - updating the previously archived "Waterfox Old", now named Waterfox-Classic. Contributors can clearly see what Classic development is ongoing.GitHub Actions will be clearly segregated, allowing easy viewing of ongoing builds.Waterfox Classic will have its own simple landing page.Issues can be opened in a separate tracker, not getting closed for not focusing on G4.An organised, clear list of what security patches haven't been fixedĪ fair warning will be presented to all those who want to use Classic, that it may be vulnerable to multiple security issues - but the choice is given to the user to proceed at their own discretion.This will keep Classic ongoing for as long as possible - but the success of this project will still rely on contribution. Over the next week, infrastructure will be put in place for Classic to keep it running properly. We will let you know when this is complete. Today marks the soft release of the 4th Generation of Waterfox. #FLASH FOR WATERFOX UPDATE#Īfter enough time has elapsed, the automatic update will be seeded out to all users. You may have noticed a new website - much more information, with a more practical structure. This website also allows us to add documentation, support documents and better ways to convey information. We will be optimising the website over the next few weeks as well as setting up redirects for any old pages that have been missed. Waterfox has returned to its roots with performance at the forefront. We have aggressively optimised Waterfox for as much performance as possible. Unfortunately this means we have to leave older systems behind - but any computer from the last decade should work.ĪRM builds are now available for macOS and these are also optimised, taking advantage of the new hardware Apple has to offer. Windows and Linux ARM builds will also follow in due course. We have also changed the way we make changes to the underlying Gecko platform, meaning we can now track releases faster and in a more automated way. Over the next few months we will track the central branch of Gecko.
