This depends on ffmpeg4.4 for MP4/H.264 codec support.

@brikler LTO, PGO and SSE2 support are only in waterfox-g4-kpe package.

hi,

provides waterfox-g4-bin also LTO+PGO and SSE2 support, or only in the waterfox-g4-kpe package?

For some reason, waterfox-current-bin started showing "Gah. Your tab just crashed." on every page I open. I suspect some recent Arch package update. Multiple PCs with Arch affected likewise. Have found a workaround, to disable the "browser.tabs.remote.autostart" - https://windowsreport.com/gah-your-tab-just-crashed/

Hi @tilt, thanks for your comment. I've added it to the sticky comment. :)

Hi @simokron, app.update.doorhanger to false wasn't enough to me: the notification after few seconds WF has been opened was gone, but another one popped up during a fullscreen video streaming (different layout but same kind of message), several minutes later.

I solved modifying this config too: app.update.checkInstallTime to false

Hope this can help, bye bye! T.

Attention: This is last version of WF based on 68. There is newer waterfox-g3-bin available based on Gecko 78, but currently it doesn't have some of the features known from „Current" like for example tab bar position changing.

If you want to stay on this version, we recommend disabling the annoying update notification in WF:

  • Go to about:config
  • Find app.update.doorhanger and set it to false

There have been reports that this isn't enough. If you still see the update notification, please try @tilt's addition:

  • Find app.update.checkInstallTime and set it to false

PLEASE DON'T FLAG THIS PACKAGE AS OUT OF DATE (just install waterfox-g3-bin if that is the version you desire)
