Supermium, Chromium 126 kernel??? now we are on 131 kernel.

Supermium 126 is an ESR version, so should be fine for quite a while yet.

lol yeah guys, you shouldn't be too picky with running software on older or even outdated OSs

Even W10 is gonna enter ESU stage next year O_o

Thanks you i add  it in my post. But is Waterfox full supported or bug/security fixes only?

Fully supported.  I was using it on my Windows 8.1 laptop until a few weeks ago, when I installed Windows 10.  I did find, with a clean installation, that I had to install the Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes All-in-One: https://www.techpowerup.com/download/visual-c-redistributable-runtime-package-all-in-one/ first before installing Waterfox.

I tried patching firefox nightly build, but I'm missing something and I don't have enough experience to debug this any further unfortunately, but it seems to attempt to launch.

 

Is there someone who suceed to run it on W7+ or W8.1+??

I'm going to try that out soon. Currently doing my bachelor's degree

There is a bug in the FF Nightly versions right now. It doesn't even run on W10 or W11.

Maybe the upcoming fixed version will bring back compatibility with 8.1 as well (when modded).
