Direct support for legacy Firefox extensions has been restored. Legacy extensions may require changes so that they can be used in Waterfox 68: All extensions need to be updated to reflect changes made to the add-on system in Firefox's. Ignoring the announcement and clinging to the abandoned plugins nonetheless was simply short-sighted.Ĭomplaining here in the Linux Mint forum, because now the final EOL day for the unmaintained Firefox plugins had come with the release of Pale Moon 29.2.0, will not change anything.īy the way, I do have Pale Moon 29.2.0, and there is nothing which I have lost when upgrading from 29.1.1 to 29.2.0.
