The Pale Moon project wants to keep it's customization, that is the reason why the Australis UI is not coming to Pale Moon or the 57+ Ui is not coming to Pale Moon. Both variants are radically crippled, simplified - that is not the goal what the Pale Moon creators want to achieve.

You want a browser which is like Chrome? Then i suggest you use Chrome or Firefox (more or less turned into a Chrome imitation by Mozilla) instead, Waterfox would also fit your category of attractive browsers.

If you want an Australis class browser application give Basilisk a try.

Or just use Pale Moon with a complete theme that makes it look like FF29 or later.

You may note that PM increments minor version number only because that is the way that version numbers are supposed to increment, for example 27.7 was updated to 27.8.

Incrementing the "major" version number when there is no major change to an app's core is about smoke and mirrors.

We go by a scheme of Milestone.Major.Minor so 27.8 is a major update vs 27.7

The milestone verson number is normally increased when there are a huge number of fundamental and/or breaking changes. Such as a platform jump or a significant change to the platform.

This has been explained on the forum before. Like so many other things you might want to actually search for an answer or simply ask before making assumptions or pulling incorrect answers you just made up out of your ass.

Consequently, this is why I generally dislike other so called IT Professionals such as WilliamK. They pull this shit all the time.. Pretending they know things bluffing and bullshitting their way through situations trying to look smarter than they are because in general no one around them knows any better. Reenforced by the ignorant prase of everyone as some sort of wizard for his magic in conjering up spells to make their computer box do things.

Let's not start flame wars and abuse new members as is the Pale Moon forum norm.

Why not just be civil and explain rather than being abusive?

Says the person who just got a thread locked and a warning issued.. I speak the truth. Deal with it.

And your stake in this is? Point out any factual errors I made in my statement?

He made up some generalized crap that has no barring on how Pale Moon versions work and pretended not only that he knew what was going on but that all versioning systems work the same way. He also has identified him self as an IT pro.

Thus, since it followed the pattern, I related my experience after mentioning that this had been explained before..

So what is the problem?

Thank You for "putting your foot down"...
Off-topic:
If the impertinent unsavory tone against other users in some threads by a "coder" will not stop then I'll think about ending my membership in the Pale Moon forum. Such a rough climate and indecent speech i don't expect and want to read from civilized folks!

Just 2 more examples:
viewtopic.php?f=13&t=18615&p=137177#p137177: "...so called IT Professionals such as WilliamK. They pull this shit all the time..."

Am I right to expect no such gutter language and four-letter words in this forum :?:

viewtopic.php?f=61&t=18589#p137533 : "Or bypass the hassle and stop stealing content that you do not own or have a right to download .... people simply can't help being thieves and criminals."

In Germany and other european free constitutional democracies it is not forbidden to download Youtube videos. If someone special wants to educate himself here just 2 of uncountable links of interest (content is in german - but I think when i can write this in (not so perfect) english others can read a text in german language which about 100 millon can):
https://www.fachanwalt.de/ratgeber/darf ... downloaden
https://praxistipps.chip.de/download-vo ... nicht_9496

Sueing others "stealing" and being "thieves and criminals" isn't acceptable! :thumbdown:

Agreeing with me calling people to order doesn't grant you the right to tread heavily, yourself. If moderation is required it will be done -- by moderators.

Considering the whole premise of the OP was to stir up and fuel heated opinions and arguments, I'm locking this thread.
