My Browser Builds (Part 2)
nicolaasjan replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
In both New Moon 28 and Pale Moon 28, I can access https://www.spiegel.de/international/ with 'JS on' and uBlock Origin enabled. Maybe a filter issue? -

uBlock-for-firefox-legacy 1.16.4.23 installs fine in New Moon 28 as well. May I ask what is the benefit of NM 27? Has NM 28 features that prevent it from running on old hardware? -

Is it normal that uBlock-for-firefox-legacy 1.16.4.22 can be installed in New Moon 28 (contrary to NM 27)? I have the latest version: palemoon-28.10.1a1.win32-git-20200711-92c0881dc-uxp-936438dd5-xpmod -

Unfortunately the Redirector addon does not work on Pale Moon (it's a web extension)... Tip: The new Reddit layout is probably very slow on your PC. With this userscript all Reddit links get redirected to https://old.reddit.com/ which is way faster. -

No problem; However, I noticed on the youtube-to-invidious Feedback page some people reported problems with Pale Moon... YT2Invidio seems to work better (tested on this site). PS: Especially on an old PC a good ad blocker (uBlock-for-firefox-legacy) will definitely speed up webpage loading! -

You can review the code of the script here: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/375264-youtube-to-invidious/code When installed, you can even change a few options in the script via Greasemonkey (Userscripts ---> Preferences): About your edit: I don't know. Maybe someone else here knows? -

Well... Yesterday it worked, but now it doesn't any more here... You can also check out https://invidio.us/ [EDIT] With the Greasemonkey extension and a userscript you can let embedded Youtube videos play in Invidious. Greasemonkey: https://github.com/janekptacijarabaci/greasemonkey/releases/tag/3.31.4Fork (grab version 3.31.4 near the bottom).

For now you can have the old interface back by changing in about:config: general.useragent.override.youtube.com from: Mozilla/5.0 (%OS_SLICE% rv:60.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/60.0 PaleMoon/28.10.1a1 to: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html) That is, until Google kills it permanently... Screenshot [EDIT] Changed the first useragent value from the Linux one to the one in my XP virtual machine; sorry for that... -

My Browser Builds (Part 2)
nicolaasjan replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
I can do that in my Linux system. 1. Install the program fontforge. 2. Create a script called e.g. otf2ttf.sh in /home/$USER/bin, with the following content: #!/usr/bin/fontforge i=1 while ( i<$argc ) Open($argv[i]) Generate($argv[i]:r + ".ttf") i = i+1 endloop 3. Make this script executable. 4. Open a terminal in the directory with your .otf file(s) and enter the following command: for i in *.otf; do echo $i; fontforge -script ~/bin/otf2ttf.sh $i; done 5. Profit! [Edit] Fontforge is available for Windows as well, but I have no idea how to proceed there... -

Thanks simonsat! It works. Now I really hope there soon will be a fix of some sort, so that you don't have to do this with each new release... -
My Browser Builds (Part 2)
nicolaasjan replied to roytam1's topic in Browsers working on Older NT-Family OSes
Hi all! New user here from The Netherlands. First of all I want to thank roytam1 for his efforts to keep a browser alive for Windows XP. @simonsat I'm facing the same problem Gargam had, but with the Dutch locale in palemoon-28.9.0a1.win32-git-20200314-bad6974a7-uxp-41e5925b4-xpmod. I don't know how to modify the xpi-file myself, so I'm asking you if you would be so kind to provide me a working one?
