    RedFox and after that Supermium as a last resort.

    Maybe we should leave Blaukovitch's builds.
    Western systems like Windows may pose potential security risks.

    Of course just kidding, I need those builds to continue using Brave and Edge on my laptop (Win 7) & tablet (Win 8.1)

    FF ESR 115 can still be potentially extended.
    Mozilla will release new statement in March 2025.

    From their FAQ :

    Even if they drop Windows 7 it is not a tragedy at all, because of existence of already mentioned RedFox and Supermium.

    I am sick and tired of having the same stuff recommended for the umpteenth time and answering the same question. FOR MY PUPOSES it is simply inadequate and fireofx is not. Is that a special recommendation that it works for you? Do a search and count how often these have been recommended...

    Did they mention an Extension? Btw, if Mozilla really extends support for 7/8.1 they could have just supported both of them until v128, which would have been a smarter solution in plenty of ways
