Basilisk compatiblility issues
Basilisk isn't compatible with many websites. Pale Moon isn't compatible at all. "Making sure you're not a bot" is the only Pale Moon page that comes up. [I had to use Firefox to get here.]
Other websites just block most images.

Basilisk and Pale Moon both work for the majority of sites I use. There are absolutely some sites that don't work in our browsers, I won't argue that, but there are many more sites that do work.
Not sure what the issue is here. I am responding to you from Basilisk with images on the page rendering properly.
I am literally using Basilisk right now and am not affected by this so it is not affecting all users.

Re: Basilisk compatiblility issues
Looks like a hit and run or generic rant post given how there's zero details. Best wait for OP to respond to the usual questions Basilisk-dev put forward instead of wasting time guessing or playing 20 questions.

Re: Basilisk compatiblility issues
Not using a VPN.
Images on many websites simply will not show up.
And as for Pale Moon forum: The "making sure you're not a bot" page is the only thing that comes up.
The instructions for support claim to post in the Basilisk section of Palm Moon forum. This is that section. [I can't even post a picture here so that I can show you.]
I just want things to work, and they don't.
I'm using version 2022.01.27, and now I find the "Basilisk is no longer supported or updated" in "About Basilisk".
I don't know how you are able to view it from Basilisk, but I can't.
Not a rant. I'm asking for help getting Basilisk to work.

Re: Basilisk compatiblility issues
Please install the latest version of Basilisk from https://basilisk-browser.org/
The version you are using is (as you may have guessed) 4 years out of date. A lot has changed since then, especially since the browser has been taken over by its own independent developer.
Running a very old version will not have many features required for web compatibility in 2026.
While you're at it, also check the version of your Pale Moon browser and update as-necessary.

I downloaded. Now, I lost everything from the old version. And trying to open the old version just brings up the new version.

Re: Basilisk compatiblility issues
I'm looking in "%APPDATA%\Moonchild Productions\Basilisk" "%APPDATA%\Basilisk-Dev\Basilisk", but all I'm seeing is empty new profile. I don't know where to look for old profile information.

Re: Basilisk compatiblility issues
Everything seems to work now.
Making a backup of Profiles on both in case I messed up was difficult with the "file path too long" issue.
Thank you.
