Hi!

Since Moebius was split off early this year, who knows what issues can happen due to changes since then when downgrading from later FF versions.

For example one thing I know of is that they moved favicons outside places.sqlite into favicons.sqlite. Will Basilisk support this? Or will it import the favicons from favicons.sqlite back into places? Or will I just loose them completely.

Migrating the latest Firefox profiles to Basilisk is not supported because of the breaking changes Mozilla has made that made it incompatible with itself.
