@cmccaff1

To come back to the question about search engine extensions...

Actually, why do people need extra extensions for their search engines? Isn't the Opensearch standard a good solution? That way, you can even add current search engines to the old Netscape browser of 2008. Startpage and Duckduckgo support it, Mojeek too and many more sites.

To look for an Opensearch plugin, have a look at the search bar (at the upper right corner of the old Firefox compatible browsers). The second-to-last item is "Add", if there is an Opensearch plugin available. That works in Pale Moon too. But! For some sites, you have to check for the Opensearch plugin at their home page. For some sites, you have to do a search and check for the plugin afterwards.

Opensearch is a perfect solution on Firefox-compatible browsers...in fact, @RainyShadow kindly reintroduced me to the Mycroft Project, which I had used long ago and forgotten all about. It's a great alternative to downloading search plugins from the Pale Moon or Basilisk websites--in fact, I'm currently using the "!Google" (Google NCR) engine from the Mycroft website, their #1 offering out of the top 100.

You have to login to google forum to post. If you are already logged in, it will lead you to making a new post where the continue button is.

thanks

I'm here because there was an unpleasant situation with Mypal. The repository was removed from GH together with contributions almost two hundred users, including me. Some people decided to interpret the MPL 2.0 to bring paragraph 5.1.

so "the larger work" is mozilla, not palemoon.
BTW M.A.T. is trying to involve me in that issue, but I'm not going to get in that.

Same here - been trying all day - Loads then quickly turns to a blank page. I've tried all user-agents I know of and the one recommended?!

How are you able to make it work @RainyShadow I'm now using the latest ST52spacer.png

EDIT: However, I'm able to load it [https://imgur.com/] fine with both FF52.9.1 and FF45

 

Sorry to hear that; Roy :(

I hope you will continue your development for FF45 - I've been using it and will give up on MCP altogether after finally reading what happened. I'm able to spoof FF62 and youtube loads fine and plays quite well and I don't get the 'nag' to update the browser anymore, and, besides, I can't support "them" anymore. I realize tefourfox is over, so whatever you do to keep it going would be awesome.

user_pref("general.oscpu.override", "Windows NT 10.0");
user_pref("general.platform.override", "");
user_pref("general.useragent.compatMode.version", "62");
user_pref("general.useragent.override", "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0");

It's not the end of uxp 52 and boc-uxp is it? I haven't had time to read through all of what's been going on lately yet but didn't see any updates today so just wondering.

You figure you have been supporting MCP by using one of roytam1’s builds for XP? That’s rather ironic, because MCP clearly thinks otherwise. The only reason FF45 was selected was that it did not require SSE2. I think a majority of us have processors that support SSE2, and if you are able to use FF52, then that includes you. A similar patched version of FF52 has been requested more than once, and would be a fine idea - but there might not be any upstream to pave the way.

I am using MCP based ports (newmoon and mypal and webbrowser on linux) since are last browsers without all antifeatures, sensible classic UI, classic addon support. Antifeatures like webrtc, eme, invisible recapta, telemetry etc
