Pale Moon 28.5.0 is out

A new version of the Pale Moon web browser, Pale Moon 28.5.0, has been released on April 30, 2019. The new version is a major development and bugfix update according to the release notes.
Pale Moon 28.5.0 is already available on the official website; interested users may download a portable version or installer to run it on supported systems.
Pale Moon supports automatic updates; just select Pale Moon > Help > About Pale Moon to run a check for updates. The updater will install the new version automatically on the system.
The development team changed the About page of the browser in the new version. The redesigned about page does not check for updates anymore; you find the option to do so under Pale Moon > Help > Check for Updates.
Pale Moon 28.5.0
The new release, even though it is labeled as a major development update, is mostly a bugfix release. The developers addressed a crash issue with frames, another crash caused by improperly formatted SVG files, an issue with asynchronous or deferred scripts that prevented page loads from completing, and an issue that changed the custom New Tab Page URL occasionally.
The removal of unused or unneeded components continued in Pale Moon 28.5.0 as well. The team removed all Firefox Accounts code, the Windows Maintenance Service, e10 code from widgets, removed code and leftovers for certain unsupported operating systems such as OS/2 or SunOS, and removed crashreporter toolkit files and exception handler hooks.
As far as improvements go, there is a new Loop control for HTML5 video, improved DOS heuristics for basic HTTP auth, and improved handling of proxie and pseudo-VPN extension connections.
Updated site-specific user agent overrides for sites should improve compatibility with certain sites, and some libraries and files have been updated.
Pale Moon 28.5.0 is available for Windows (officially) and Linux (maintained by third-parties). A Mac version is on its way but not released yet. You can download the Windows version from the official website.
Now You: Have you tried Pale Moon recently?


Doesn’t Windows 8 know that www. or http:// are passe ?
Well it is a bit difficulty to distinguish between name.com domains and files for instance.
I know a service made by google that is similar to Google bookmarks.

@Ashwin–Thankful you delighted my comment; who knows how many “gamers” would have disagreed!
@Martin
The comments section under this very article (3 comments) is identical to the comments section found under the following article:
https://www.ghacks.net/2023/08/15/netflix-is-testing-game-streaming-on-tvs-and-computers/
Not sure what the issue is, but have seen this issue under some other articles recently but did not report it back then.
Omg a badge!!!
Some tangible reward lmao.
It sucks that redditors are going to love the fuck out of it too.
With the cloud, there is no such thing as unlimited storage or privacy. Stop relying on these tech scums. Purchase your own hardware and develop your own solutions.
This is a certified reddit cringe moment. Hilarious how the article’s author tries to dress it up like it’s anything more than a png for doing the reddit corporation’s moderation work for free (or for bribes from companies and political groups)
Almost al unlmited services have a real limit.
And this comment is written on the dropbox article from August 25, 2023.

For the God’s sake, fix the comments soon please! :[
Yes. Please. Fix the comments.
With Google Chrome, it’s only been 1,500 for some time now.
Anyone who wants to force me in such a way into buying something that I can get elsewhere for free will certainly never see a single dime from my side. I don’t even know how stupid their marketing department is to impose these limits on users instead of offering a valuable product to the paying faction. But they don’t. Even if you pay, you get something that is also available for free elsewhere.
The algorithm has also become less and less savvy in terms of e.g. English/German translations. It used to be that the bot could sort of sense what you were trying to say and put it into different colloquialisms, which was even fun because it was like, “I know what you’re trying to say here, how about…” Now it’s in parts too stupid to translate the simplest sentences correctly, and the suggestions it makes are at times as moronic as those made by Google Translations.
If this is a deep-learning AI that learns from users’ translations and the phrases they choose most often – which, by the way, is a valuable, moneys worthwhile contribution of every free user to this project: They invest their time and texts, thereby providing the necessary data for the AI to do the thing as nicely as they brag about it in the first place – alas, the more unprofessional users discovered the translator, the worse the language of this deep-learning bot has become, the greater the aggregate of linguistically illiterate users has become, and the worse the language of this deep-learning bot has become, as it now learns the drivel of every Tom, Dick and Harry out there, which is why I now get their Mickey Mouse language as suggestions: the inane language of people who can barely spell the alphabet, it seems.
And as a thank you for our time and effort in helping them and their AI learn, they’ve lowered the limit from what was once 5,000 to now 1,500…? A big “fuck off” from here for that! Not a brass farthing from me for this attitude and behaviour, not in a hundred years.
