For example, imagine a national school system having to change their entire browser system because a new release does not support some important outdated features (but relevant to the system in question) or worse because of a security vulnerability.įound under the moniker of Firefox ESR (stands for Extended Support Release), it’s a browser specifically designed for organizations that require extended support. One of the main issues with mass software deployment within organizations can be the lack of extended support. When they killed Opera in 2013, I switched back to Firefox, added everything I missed from Opera with extensions I didn't know and many other things that even Opera didn't have.It may be unknown to many day-to-day users out there that the Mozilla Foundation offers a product specifically aimed at medium to extremely large organizations (schools, universities, and other international businesses). When I switched to Opera in 2011 and tried every single feature it had built in, many of them instantly became indispensable for me. I'm a Firefox user since 2004, but for years I had only ABP, Greasemonkey + 3 or 4 extensions. I miss the good old Opera Presto, it completely changed the way I think of web browsers. I use Firefox only (many versions and profiles), but the other browsers I have installed and open once a year are Vivaldi, Pale Moon and Otter. Firefox (desktop) is miles ahead of any Blink/WebKit browser on how you can make it look the way you want and with the features you want. It would be nice if the table displayed something like Y* for features obtainable through extensions (and some other ways like userChrome.css). I think Firefox's Containers are useful enough to be listed as a feature
