Sorry we missed the 27.1 series, there was some build breakage and personal life interruptions. But things are looking up!

Downloading it as soon as I thank you for your continued work. Pale Moon is working fine, is very fast, and is my primary browser. Mid-2010 MacBook Pro, 8GB RAM, Crucial SSD, Yosemite 10.10.5
Thanks, sugis!

Sugis... Apparently you are not including devtools and building with official branding.
That's not what we agreed.
Sugis wrote:I'll continue to produce builds as best as I can. For now, maybe it's best that this remains as an unofficial release.
Kindly keep it unofficially branded (use unstable branding if you want) and try to include all the tools that should be there at least? Thanks.

Thanks for posting the new build!

However, I should note that I'm still having the issue with nothing showing in the Application menu other than "Quit".

Sorry Moonchild, I've switched to the unofficial branding. It was an oversight.

No problem. Please see the Github discussion; using "unstable" isn't a good idea on second thought because it's specifically configured for the unstable channel that won't work well for release-branch builds for mac. Sorry if that caused extra confusion.

I'm very happy that it still works on Snow Leopard!

Firstly, thanks as always for these Mac builds of Pale Moon.

This version of Pale Moon broke video playback on imgur for me, as compared to the previous Pale Moon build posted (27.0.3).
I am running under Yosemite (10.10.5) on a mid-2010 MBP, with the latest homebrew gstreamer (1.10.4).

A sample URL where the video will not play is http://imgur.com/gallery/6b6NOHL
Instead of the video playing, I only see a still image (the first frame of the video).

Not all video playback is broken for me with the new version -- youtube, for example, works fine.

When I right-click on the video, the context menu looks notably different in 27.2.0 versus 27.0.3. (see attached images)
In the new version of Pale Moon, clicking on most of the options in the context menu has no effect.
With the old version, the entire context menu is functional.

Am happy to help troubleshoot.

I have also experienced the same context menu problems as moonray. And for me it seems that these context menu problems are also causing problems with my dictionary's spell check.

Context menues are fine in my PM 27.2, but this is on Snow Leopard, where other things work as well which seem to be broken on more recent macOS.

Regarding imgur video, which plays all right here, you might try to change your MSE settings in Preferences/Content. There is another thread where an add-on is mentioned to have direct control over HTML5/MSE settings from status bar.
