Off-topic:
And PC originally meant the IBM PC, which predates the first Mac by 3 years. Apple themselves ran their Mac vs PC ads in the mid 2000s.

I've used Pale Moon for a few years now on older intel Mac's its sad to see it go. As this release ages I'll probably look to switch on my mac's. If admins don't mind alternatives for older mac's will be

https://www.waterfox.net/download/ I've always had trouble with youtube and never stuck with it or reported the issue as I had Pale Moon

https://parrotgeek.com/fxlegacy.html firefox for old intel mac's not updated as often as pale moon was, but does what it says on the tin.

https://github.com/blueboxd/chromium-le ... tag/867046 Newish one to me, never been a fan of chrome, but if you're running lion you like me will be glad of the fact you actually have a choice.

Finally I'd like to thank everyone at Pale Moon for supporting old Mac's as long as you have.

Hear, hear. I second this. Thanks for supporting Macs (older and otherwise) as long as you did.

Waterfox is a good browser. Also good -- Brave and Vivaldi.
Nothing to say here.

Waterfox is a mere toy compared to us. A marketing ploy by a liar and a cheat who sold out to an adclick company for just a little bit more money. Brave is merely Eich's revenge on Mozilla and Vivaldi is just another Google Drone Proxy like Opera like Microsoft like everyone else.

This is also a contributing reason why we are no longer supporting Macintosh. Ignorance and stupidity of Apple users worshiping a company JUST AS BAD as those others. You and your brethren only did this to yourselves and we cannot help you anymore because you refuse to help each other.

Ironically, Darwin is largely based on BSD.
