    Thanks for the tip! Setting dom.webcomponents.enabled to false did the trick. Does setting this preference to false have a negative impact on other functions?

    Although Palefill 1.26 is installed in my Serpent 52, the interface of VirusTotal is blank after loading. As far as I can see, VirusTotal changed their font. It is now Google Sans. There doesn't seem to be a supported format for Serpent 52. Here is the output of my error console: Maybe, our font experts do have an idea how to fix that. Additionally, there seems to be more problems in Serpent 52 when loading VirusTotal. Here is the output of my web console: Anything which can be polyfilled? Cheers, Astroskipper

    By using dorando keyconfig, you can disable any shortcuts listed in its window. I installed it again for testing purpose. Look at my screenshot: The shortcut Ctrl-Shift-W has been disabled by me in Serpent 52. You can revert this by clicking the button Reset or manually at any time, of course. Hope it works for you. Cheers, AstroSkipper

    You're welcome! I used this extension in the past, but currently it is not installed in my browser. It has always served me well.

    The ability for toggling this preference is very much appreciated. This way, each of us can decide for ourselves what kind of tab style is to be used. Many thanks for your efforts!
  8. AstroSkipper
    Yep, I also checked this preference, and it is in its default state true.

    As far as I can say, I didn't observe this issue in New Moon 28. In this browser, I use Tab Utilities Phoenix 2.1.0 with the 'multi-row tab bar' feature enabled. The version is slightly different to the original release due to some changes to its code (German language glitches were fixed by me), but I don't think that this makes any difference. Only changes to the German locale. Anyway! No breakage in New Moon 28 observed at the moment!

    Hello @basilisk-dev! Thanks a lot for your quick investigation! To fix the breakage of Tab Utilities Phoenix and presumably Tab Mix Plus by reverting recent changes from mentioned commit would be great. And many thanks for the ongoing development of Basilisk! Greetings from Germany, AstroSkipper

    sure, layout is changed by upstream commit: https://github.com/roytam1/UXP/commit/89dd425fd22a6cbbbbef2d2b47e2a4bc9fc14fc3 Thanks for the hint! Can this be reverted in the next release or any other suggestions to make Tab Utilities Phoenix's multi-row tab bar feature working again? BTW, the developer of Tab Utilities Phoenix just released the version 2.1.2 yesterday. It was actually supposed to be a compatibility update.
  12. AstroSkipper
    Okay! I investigated this issue a bit more closely. In a new profile, no problem with the feature 'multi-row tab bar', but in my main profile, there is this problem as long as this feature is enabled. I assume it is a new incompatibility to another extension or setting after updating Serpent 52. Maybe, I find the culprit. Well, that was unfortunately a fallacy! I created once again a new profile in Serpent 52, installed only Tab Utilities Phoenix 2.1.2, activated the 'multi-row tab bar' feature, opened two rows of empty tabs, and then the browser went completely berserk. It changed the display from one row to two rows flashing under a 100% CPU load. Only disabling this feature in Tab Utilities Phoenix made the browser usable again. Something in the code of Serpent 52 must have changed, in any case the multi-row tab display no longer works as usual, at least in my system.

    Of course, but I took the first link I found. Google sends its regards!

    Our days are numbered, too. But, joking aside! Speculating about the future is one thing. But we are (probably) not clairvoyants . The actual state is decisive. It's not only about your needs or mine. The fact is, MailNews and DreamMail Pro work with many email services, unfortunately with the exception of Microsoft 365. But in old operating systems, not every new gadget has to and can work. Then the user just has to use a more up-to-date operating system. There, the choice of email clients is much greater, and presumably, one of them will work with the latest stuff.

    A small update information! DreamMail Pro has been updated again and is now available in version 6.6.6.5. It is still XP compatible. Great to see ongoing development! Here is the download link: https://dl.cy-email.com/dm6/Download/dmpro_setup6.6.6.5.exe Cheers, AstroSkipper

    In Serpent 52, not only Tab Mix Plus seems to be broken. Even the extension Tab Utilities Phoenix in the version 2.1.0 and also the most recent 2.1.2 from March 6, 2023 is not working properly. The feature 'multi-row tab bar' causes a 100% CPU utilization. Something tab related must have been changed. Only disabling this feature in Tab Utilities Phoenix will make Serpent usable again. I am not really happy with that as it is a feature I actually always have been using.

    You are absolutely right. I mixed up the variables reader.parse-on-load.enabled and reader.parse-on-load.force-enabled. Shi* happens! I already corrected my post. Here is a screenshot of my settings in Serpent 52: Cheers, AstroSkipper

    To control and change keyboard shortcuts in general, I used the extension dorando keyconfig in the past. I don't know if it is still compatible, but I think so. Here is a link: https://addons.thunderbird.net/de/thunderbird/addon/dorando-keyconfig/ The last (legacy) version was 2018.1.
  20. AstroSkipper
    The keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+R works in my installation of Serpent 52, but F9 doesn't. The variable reader.parse-on-load.enabled is set to true (default setting), and the variable reader.parse-on-load.force-enabled is set to false (default setting).
  21. AstroSkipper
    With all due respect, I see it a bit differently, and your statement (underlined by me) does not describe the situation correctly. There are two email clients that work with Windows XP and Vista and can handle app password or Oauth2. And MailNews in particular. For me, it's completely sufficient. Its Oauth2 protocol works great with Gmail. It should be mentioned that not everyone needs a Microsoft 365 account in pre-Win 7 systems. And its light web version Outlook.com works flawlessly in MailNews. And that means MailNews (and even DreamMail Pro) are more than acceptable in any case, especially for such old OSs like XP and Vista. Additional support of Microsoft 365 would be great, of course, even if I had nothing to gain from it. PS: Sorry for being off-topic here, but a reply to a comment can already cause something like this.

    1 - Why ? Elaborate please. 2 - Personally you, undertstandable , your choice of course . Astroskipper, why would you join the anti-kernel crowd all of a sudden ? And exactly now ! Please tell me, if it's no secrtet. 1 - There is nothing more to elaborate. I have already sufficiently justified my position in this post: And here: 2 - Of course! Based on my experiences. Just to clarify, I didn't join whatever crowd you are talking about. I do not have that kind of camp thinking. I am an individual and, for the reasons I have given, I consider these so-called Extended Kernels to be questionable and superfluous. Especially in a productive system. As you know, I am a die-hard fan of Windows XP. Even if there was such an Extended Kernel for Windows XP, I wouldn't use it unless it would be official, which will never happen, though. And as long as Windows 8.1 works and can be used, there is actually no need for such an Extended Kernel anyway.
  23. AstroSkipper
    Yes, in terms of site compatibility, 360Chrome 13/13.5 is still ahead at the moment. In Mypal 68, there are still many websites that do not work correctly. You are basically right about the content. But I have to mention that I am a big, die-hard fan of UXP browsers. I will use New Moon 28 and Serpent as my main browsers for as long as I can.
  24. AstroSkipper
    You are absolutely right! There is presumably nothing more to say here. Maybe, in future times, but then a new thread can be opened.
  25. AstroSkipper
    Yep, that's what I meant. Long time ago, when I was on Windows ME, I used in the end the Extended Kernel "KernelEx". Although it worked in a lot of cases, it was always fiddly. And, it never worked out of the box. At a certain point, I gave up. No more Extended Kernels. If an OS can't be used anymore, or additional kernel functions are needed, one has to change to another OS.
