Loving 25.4

Unread post by konarktriv7 » 2020-05-26, 09:15

I've been using NewMoon v. 25.4 with OSX 10.6.8 for about 5-6 months, and with 10.7 for a month or so. It's my browser of choice. Fast, neat and clean interface, and easy to navigate compared to Google Chrome or (ugh!) Firefox. I only wish it had a built-in "reader" function like Safari and some other browsers. I appreciate all the work done on development of this browser. Question: What's the difference between NewMoon and PaleMoon?

You've never heard of browser extensions? There is no reason for Pale Moon to have anything built-in, whatsoever when there are a million ways to extend functionality already.

New Moon is an unofficial build, hence not supported by the dev team here. You'll have to speak to whoever maintains New Moon if you run into any problems.

It's also strongly recommended you update your Pale Moon/New Moon to something a lot more recent than what you have now. v25.4 is hopelessly outdated and insecure.

For mac OS X we don't have official builds (yet) so new moon is the only one you'll e able to get for your O.S. at this time. For more recent builds see other topics in this board.
