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 (I'm spoofing the user agent of latest Firefox version) but it's overall slower than R3dfox.

For the non-working sites, is it due to User-Agent blocking or unimplemented JavaScript functionalities? I know that one of the founders of Mozilla is still doing the former, old-school method to block scrapers rather than using something like Anubis as it looks basically like Hashcash for him.
