  1. Does the one hosted on AMO not work for you? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/saveasebook/versions/ It does install in latest St52, but haven't tested its proper function there ... ... Which files? From a quick look, one should only pack to ZIP(=>.xpi) the contents of: https://github.com/alexadam/save-as-ebook/tree/master/web-extension

  2. I've got similar score as @Anbima in Speedometer 2.0 on XP in 360Chrome 13.5, using AMD Phenom II X4 920 (over)clocked at 3 GHz. Don't recall the exact number, should be somewhere between 36 and 39. Seems simply CPU bound test.

  3. I still say you need a better test site. DcB and Mini don't even render the same page for me. One centers the Home menu at the bottom of the page, one has "star" numbers, the other does not, so one browser clearly had to do something different to get that "star" number. I get several png's that don't even load due to err_cert_invalid, so of course that is going to effect page load time. Page loads in under a second, but the browser's own Dev Tools Network tab reports "Finish" at closer to SIX SECONDS - the load time is being "tricked" to report LOW.

  4. ... The last version of which is v1.70, from 2020... The app is tailored to work best with official Mozilla Firefox, properly installed in the system... For XP x86, you obviously need to DL the 32-bit flavour - localization file needs to be separately downloaded/extracted and placed alongside the main executable... Once launched, don't fear if the window ends up being empty : Top Menu => File => Select Folders => Profile Folder Path: ... and paste there the full (absolute) path to the browser profile directory holding the account credentials you wish to extract/back-up; as you might have figured out already, the app also works for "portable" browser installations! FTR, just used it on latest St52 (32-bit), so it definitely works on UXP-based browsers ...

  5. I'm getting high / highest CPU utilization in both Spt.52 and NM28.10 (latest versions of 04/07 and 04/15) on various sites when JS is activated, eg. https://www.ebay.de or https://www.commerzbank.de/ Didn't observe that behavior with the late-march versions (and Palefill 1.26). Edit: Sorry, wrong observation: the same heavy CPU utilization now persists when reverting to older Spt./NM versions. There must have taken place some JS modification the last days coincidently on several sites, www.commerzbank.de/ is one of them.

  6. Perhaps one could define static methods (functions?) back then, but not properties. This works in UXP: class TestClass { static shoutHello(num) { alert(`Hello! You've passed the number ${num}.`); } } TestClass.shoutHello(123); This doesn't: class TestClass { static num = 123; static shoutHello() { alert(`Hello! The number in here is ${this.num}.`); } } TestClass.shoutHello(); And this does: class TestClass { static shoutHello() { alert(`Hello! The number in here is ${this.num}.`); } } Object.defineProperty(TestClass, "num", {value: 123}); TestClass.shoutHello(); But gets messy.

  7. He is referring to St55, it is not in the version info but every time roy posts a new St55 release he states: > New build of post-deprecated Serpent/moebius for XP!

  8. The "latest" St52 and St55 are not being sent the same HTML as being sent to other browswers (including older St52 and St55). The "latest" St52 and St55 are not being sent the visibility: hidden for the <body> tag. No clue "why", changing user agent did not get the "latest" St (forgot if I tested in 52 or 55) to be sent the visibility: hidden. Limited investigation, could not isolate "why", but this will give you a headstart into something to look for - why is that visibility: hidden being sent to older browser's <body> tags but not to "latest" St's ???

  9. Oh! That explains a lot...it is good to finally have Web Components support. I did learn recently about UXP gaining support for this, but didn't realize it directly affects the ability to use GitHub without Palefill. Thank you for the explanation! (And thanks for not making me feel like an id*** about it...) I would like and do want to learn more about JavaScript, operators, etc. Though I fall into the category of your typical user (as opposed to a programmer/contributor), I don't want to be totally ignorant of how everything works...honestly, it's just amazing to go back to NM28 and see all the changes that have been made as of late. I'm finding NM28 is still very good and reliable as a 'base' browser...and for the sites that have issues in it, I'm glad there are other alternative browsers, like 360 and Mypal68, to use as well. Roy has definitely made a tremendous effort over the years with his browser forks. I am always excited to try a new release, even if there's the occasional bug...the fact that there are still browsers being maintained and updated for XP users is amazing, doubly so that it's on such a frequent basis. I feel like the XP to 7 to 10 transition, over time, can be accomplished and I feel very comfortable about it now. For now, I'm happy that I'm still able to use this legendary, venerable OS as my 'daily driver'. MS's finest hour for sure!

  10. Another option is PasswordFox from Nirsoft. I have never tried it, but it is supposed to work with all Firefox profiles (and hopefully with all Pale Moon/New Moon profiles, too). Here is a link: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/passwordfox.html
