We decided to extend support for ESR 115 only on Windows 7-8.1 and macOS 10.12-10.14 up to March 2025.
We will re-evaluate this decision in early 2025 and announce any updates on ESR 115's end-of-life then.
:D :thumbup:

Looks like https://tinyurl.com won't load with Firefox 115.20 ESR while it's working fine with R3dfox.
Same goes with Tor Browser 13.5.12 which is based on Firefox 115.20 ESR :(

I'm starting to wonder if I should revert to this on Windows 8, or stick with r3dFox. Some sites do work better on r3dFox 140 ESR, but updates are more timely and predictable on ESR 115.

I hear you. I'm more of a standardize and settle person though, selecting one utility to do the job. What issues do you still experience with v115?

I had 2 or 3 sites not working or partially working but actually not anymore. So no specific issues but it's overall slower than R3dfox.
