Basilisk 2026.06.12 Released!

Post by Basilisk-Dev » 2026-06-14, 18:54

Basilisk 2026.06.12 has been released!

This release uses UXP commit hash 83826f1f34.

Please see the downloads page to download the update or the source code archive.

The autoupdate service does not currently support FreeBSD or MacOS builds so a manual update is required on these operating systems.

PowerPC MacOS builds are not available at this time. This topic will be updates as soon as they are available.

See the release notes for more information.

Nice, thanks! I can't tell for sure, but now Basilisk at least feels snappier then before.

This is what i'm wondering at once again: a large and impressive list of updates, corrections and improvements... And absolutely no noticeable difference to the previous release here (linux/GTK2) - which is very good :thumbup: - Thank you!

Some observations.
Removed the CloudFlare workaround as it should no longer be necessary with general image size handling improvements. The preference will no longer do anything.
Do you know why the pref network.url.cloudflare_image_resizing.enabled was leftover?
Note: AV1 is now enabled by default on non-x86 Basilisk builds.
It wasn't on Win x64. Only checked as I wanted to turn it off.

Side note, you probably ought to add the Release Notes link on the Download page, as Pale Moon does. It's kinda currently out the way, especially if they go straight for the Download button, then they'll miss it.

Sorry for double post but be weary.

Turned my gaze away for a few seconds, looked back, and to my dismay, Basilisk (2026.06.12) was gone.

Github was most definitely the culprit. I was browsing in discussions tabs.

x64 is just 64-bit x86. It is still considered x86.

I meant to say dav1d here. x86 is using libaom because I want support for pre-AVX targets.

If you have overridden the default pref value it will remain in about:config. Right click on it and reset the value.

Thanks! Still no Mac-PPC version available?
