Rod Steel Posted March 7, 2025 Posted March 7, 2025 Look's like CloudFlare nightmare soon may be over, Pale Moon community reach out to press and CloudFlare team apparently noticed they negative coverage in press: Moonchild wrote: Quote Well, guess what? Suddenly now there was outreach by CloudFlare in the form of one of the senior product managers (Michael Tremante - overseeing the teams responsible for turnstile and captcha challenges) contacting me through the forum here to talk (asking to set up a meeting with the dev team and such). Isn't it remarkable how getting media coverage gets things moving?... I immediately indicated the urgency of the matter to him; not going to take the slow road here of setting up a meeting and then going through the slow dev pipeline before the discrimination stops... The Register article title is hilarious: Cloudflare's bot bouncer blocks weirdo browsers We finally know what browsers we using - a weirdo browsers. 9

johk Posted March 8, 2025 Posted March 8, 2025 (edited) I waited till a new version to report that for X.com/Twitter.com NewMoon 28 is... "This browser is no longer supported". As no one else has reported, am I the only one? This happens on a fresh profile (so no preferences interfering) since a couple of updates. I'm "using" Firefox 115 for X.com/Twitter.com now but... while is smoother with JavaScript is so heavy... Edited March 8, 2025 by johk

roytam1 Posted March 9, 2025 Author Posted March 9, 2025 (edited) decided to build a "-arch:AVX2" x64 build for personal use, of course it can't be XP/Vista compatible because Windows before Win7 knows nothing about AVX(2). EDIT: built and tested, but I can only feel it is slightly faster. Edited March 9, 2025 by roytam1

roytam1 Posted March 9, 2025 Author Posted March 9, 2025 Just now, Leokids123 said: If you make a arch:sse x86 build for Serpent,it could make serpent much faster... default build is already SSE2-enabled build 1

"This browser is no longer supported". Change useragent compatibility to Firefox mode. Tools | Preferences | Advanced | Compatibility User Agent mode: EDIT: alternative method Or you encounter website that dislike Firefox compatibility useragent that above method implies, you could add "general.useragent.override.x.com" string in about:config that x.com likes. Edited March 9, 2025 by Joseph_sw add alternative method
Leokids123 Posted March 9, 2025 Posted March 9, 2025 (edited) 16 hours ago, roytam1 said: default build is already SSE2-enabled build I mean,make a separate build for arch:sse build,not default build. You understood it wrong. Serpent IA32 works well but should have been faster if built with SSE,that'll help Pentium 3 and Athlon XP. Edited March 9, 2025 by Leokids123
johk Posted March 9, 2025 Posted March 9, 2025 Thanks @Joseph_sw I already had an override and that enabled. I ended removing the override the other day without success. I think toggling the preference fixed it :oS Weird things.
