BUT i look for ONE key word - "typo". it wasn't until a "typo" was fixed in v27 correcting an issue dating back to 'at least' 2018 that i *finally* was able to upgrade from 28.1.0a1 2018-09-21. i never really liked v28 (manage styles in Stylem don't color-code properly) but was kinda "forced" to use it due to a couple of bank account sites. i wasn't able to upgrade back to v27 until a "typo" causing about:permissions to not work correctly was fixed. so now i'm using a version from last month where that about:permissions typo was finally fixed. a small portion of about:permissions is STILL broken - but it's fixed enough to at least return to v27 as my default-for-all. do not know when the bank account sites started working again in v27 because i waited for the about:permissions page to be fixed before reverting back to it.

Take the best of care! thanks for pointing out that I forgot to replace old changelogs (it may because I was too sleepy at that moment), this is first time to do release engineering just before sleeping, maybe this is not a good choice as a result. I usually do release engineering right after wake up, but today I have a bicycle visit to my former teammate's workplace and I have to go in the morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VistaLover Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 11 hours ago, rereser said: the default useragent override for youtube.com has not changed with the latest update ...Well, @roytam1 is extremely busy and pressed for time currently in RL, that's probably why the recent discussion about broken YT chat on LIVE streams was not acted upon in a due fashion... Upstream have also received similar reports (be it in the Mac subforum) and Moonchild himself was initially oblivious to the solution: Quote If we indicate we are a "newer Firefox" than what we say we are, then they want to use WebComponents we don't support. So there's no way around this. Google refuses to show chat to "older" browsers. we can't tell them we are "newer" because then they will treat us to chrome-specific technology that Firefox copied but we don't have yet. Most thankfully, @rereser stepped in to enlighten the browser guru: https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?p=201384#p201384 so I guess that change will soon hit the upstream Pale Moon repo and, hopefully, be merged in next weekend's New Moon 28 builds... NB: As an unofficial/non-endorsed fork, New Moon isn't entitled access to the "Dynamic SSUAO Updates" service, currently put in place for the stable channel of Pale Moon; so, as you said, a NM28 user has to manually correct/modify the YT SSUAO entry inside about:config... OT: Thank you again for notifying "upstream" about this; I guess having an account on both "camps" is useful for cases like this one, where both "worlds" can profit from... But it sure was a prudent thing to exclude even the most minute reference to forks/officially unsupported OSes/MSFN in particular, or a "certain" person will have eaten you raw... (And I've also noticed how that person has adopted a recent habit of checking official forum posters against the database of MSFN members, once a match is found (via username), then the reporter is treated as dirt... ) Kind regards 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rereser Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) thanks for the kind reply. keeping track of posted issues on both boards helps me learn. need the practice as i'm not the youngest anymore. nobody , in my opinion . using New Moon should be asking for support on the PM board or join in a discussion. also have to keep in mind that NM28XP is based on the unstable PM version and "solutions" may not yet work in the official PM release. however , as you stated , posting a tested (new profile) simple fix without browser details helps both. and most important all of it's users. example : try this page. https://music.apple.com/il/album/sentinel/1528162085 you will get : an error observed direct temp solution was not given as it supposedly poses a security and privacy risk. dom.enable_performance_observer : bolean : set to true. now no error and the music plays. if apple corrects this then the pref should be reset to default. until such time the site is functional.

NotHereToPlayGames Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I feel like a kid on Christmas morning! I tested PM v27.6 from October 2017 over the weekend and all 11 of my usually-problematic sites now WORK. Them not working was the only reason I ever "upgraded" to v28. A kid in a Candy Store! I've never been a fan of "feature creep" and I don't like (or need) all of the "features" that have crept into Pale Moon since the days of 27.6. Truly Ecstatic!

Gargam Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Hello roytam1, A big thanks (again) for your job on NewMoon, which is my choice for a while, on XP-SP3 (Embedded POSReady2009). Thanks too to all those who help here. With the two last editions, I had sometimes a few crashes. "Events" says that faulty module is "xul.dll v4.6.0.7573", address 0x013a0fd0. No problem with the 20200926 NewMoon edition. So, I try replacing "xul.dll v4.6.0.7573" par its "v4.6.0.7559", copied from "palemoon-28.10.2a1.win32-git-20200926-9f56811e0-uxp-e0bda2246-xpmod.7z" OK (?) for now...

KeyCat Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 (edited) Also wan't to say thanks to roytam1 and anyone else involved in keeping New Moon updated! I still use XP every day for various reasons and not having a working browser would be a PITA, thanks again!
