General Discussion • Re: Pale Moon's PR Problem

I first found out about Pale Moon when I was using a laptop stuck in Windows XP. At the time the browser still supported XP I think, and I was finding an alternative to Chrome which dropped support for it. My first impression wasn't good, as I felt the UI looked too old to me, so I quickly dropped it for Firefox instead which looked Chrome enough. I guess you could say that Australis worked in attracting people like me...

Then I was forced to switch to Linux as my daily driver after I accidentally nuked the Windows 10 installation of my newer laptop (during that Win10 time Firefox was my primary). I was constantly hopping between Chromium and Firefox ESR as my primary browser, and then I somehow got tired of those two and rediscovered Pale Moon alongside many WebKit and WebEngine browsers (funnily never even bothered with anything Gecko-based). I'm still not sure how I settled with Pale Moon (I guess at that point I've become more open-minded about UIs), especially when I did drop it again for SeaMonkey for several months (I still miss the UI which is why I use Moonscape as my theme, developed the Website Navigation Bar and put the close tab button as a dedicated toolbar button), before I borked the latter's profile and then went back to PM as my definite primary browser.
