Yes, it would be enlightening for him to witness a real terrorist attack... Also, in my opinion, he has a narcissistic personality disorder. If the Pale Moon team allows him to go on like this, I fear that even the few people that still use this browser will leave.

Haha. Pale Moon on 4chan: /g/ - Pale Moon's love letter to community - Technology - 4chan They don't like the devs either...

I tried with "DownThemAll!" (5 parallel downloads); 9MB/sec (my max speed):

And now the Classic Addons Archive's files are gone as well... See: https://old.reddit.com/r/waterfox/comments/phgle9/classic_ad_on_archive_unfortunately_has_been_shut/ https://github.com/JustOff/ca-archive/issues/100 The complete archive is still accessible via this URL (or via the Internet Archive): https://cdn.waterfox.net/AMO/caa20190306.tar.xz ( 14GB compressed ! ) (file list)

Thanks!

Don't know if they're breaking the licence (I'm not a lawyer), but it's a shady loophole for sure.

(offtopic) For people under oppressive regimes, dissidents, journalists, the military, etc. it's a valid and legal option. From Wikipedia: Sure, there are people who abuse it for nefarious purposes. But there are enough that have a good reason to make use of it.

In the good old days it was straightforward to clone the GitHub Pale Moon repo and build yourself. I see it is now on repo.palemoon.org and you need an account. With the TOR browser you get: 403 Forbidden And now this: I can't call this open source any more...

Yeah, I see now (didn't check yesterday...). Sorry. These are downloadable: https://web.archive.org/web/20210901082440/https://www.mypal-browser.org/release/?C=M%3BO%3DD You mean the youtube-dl project that got hit by the RIAA? Their repo got reinstated with help of the EFF, but at the moment they're not doing very well again, because there hasn't been an update since 2021-06-06... Luckily there's the yt-dlp fork, which is actively maintained.

Yeah, it's gone... Last "usable" version: https://web.archive.org/web/20210815103613/https://github.com/Feodor2/Mypal/releases

I use uBlock Origin/uBlock-for-firefox-legacy (and uMatrix/eMatrix), which don't have that shady behaviour. I fully trust the maintainers of these.
-
But...,but..., how do you cope with all the ads?
-
My pleasure! But maybe extensions have to be downloaded first and then you have to edit the `install.rdf` file in it?

Workaround: general.useragent.override.addons.palemoon.org ---> Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Goanna/4.8 Firefox/68.0 PaleMoon/29.4.0.2 Before: After: But there's a real possibility that they come up with something more "clever" (JavaScript?).
