Hmm, i'll have to try that thanks for the heads up.

Losing tree style tabs in 42 has made me nervous, it was the primary reason I love firefox. Without that most of the why in using firefox goes away for me.

Tried Pale Moon?[0] And no, I am not affiliated in any way just a happy user that assumes more users are better then fewer users.

Pale Moon's stance on pdf.js makes me very nervous:

As I understand, the author's opinion is that Adobe Reader is more secure than pdf.js. I'm not sure I would trust them with maintaining a secure browser in light of that.

Their monetization model is also questionable (I understand it injects ads / referral links).

Any source for that? A quick search didn't turn up anything and seeing as Pale Moon is now on my shortlist of Firefox alternatives I'd be interested.

Sorry, I might have been confused there, looking at where I thought I read that I see it's just the default search engine:

For my own reference:

Never heard of it, quick scan of the page seems to indicate that it is windows/linux only though? I did a quick look at the download page and didn't see an osx build.

That is overall fine but I like to keep my browsers portable across all of my primary operating systems.

Yeah, that's kind of my only advantage for not liking Mac (wish I did:).

Still, it is just a forked Firefox so it uses the same extensions etc for now, maybe using FF on Mac and PM on the other platforms would be possible?
