Need help with r3dfox (still)

I've not really felt like it recently, so updates and resolving issues have gotten a lot slower. I'm hoping maybe someone can step in to do maintenance work while I do the major move from one version to another. I also still have a lot of issues open that I just don't know how to fix and need help from others.

I've been working on Firefox backported to Windows 7 again, and I have it running, however it's not optimal. It has some flaws like the caption bar always being the Windows 10 one regardless of operating system version. There was a lot of stuff stripped out relating to the 7 caption bar and with how much they change the GUI backend with every release I could never keep up with all the changes. I can keep up with reverting changes breaking 7 compatibility since it's usually localized to a few lines of code in a file, and although I don't really know how to code, I can kinda infer what the code does by analyzing it. These design changes would be too big a task for me as I would have to partially revert multiple commits and keep it updated with the current GUI, while also knowing barely anything about coding. There are also other changes I want to make where I either get stuck or just don't know what to do.
So I'm asking if there's anyone here that could help with r3dfox development and get it into a good state for release. I would really appreciate it.
