  "textContent": ">\n> The subtext for everything I'm saying is just that I'm fed up with having a userbase that wants to live in 2006-2012 forever, and will find every excuse in the book to keep us grounded in that era, whether it be forks of forks, obscure Linux distros, anything. I don't see why I should have to apologize for how I see things...\n\nNo need to apologize, but there are contradictions...\n\nYour favorite OS (OpenIndiana?) seems stuck in that time-frame you mention. How many technologies that gained traction in the last 10 - 15 years are available on OpenIndiana? How many modern init systems, desktop environments, display servers, audio servers and package formats are available on OpenIndiana?\n\nTo me it seems that you blame legacy users while at the same time embracing 15 year old technology. It doesn’t make sense to me...\n\nMore importantly about the Pale Moon project:\n\nBased on forum activity it seems the Pale Moon user-base is legacy oriented. Not only on Linux, but also on Windows. Many people seem to be using Windows versions and Linux distros that are out of mainstream support. There aren’t really any comments on the Pale Moon forum that praise Windows 11 or the latest Linux distros. Instead you see comments about how bad Windows 11 is and how bad the latest Linux technologies are.\n\nPale Moon will always be a legacy browser until you can become Google and implement “web standards” across the web. You will always play catch-up with million/billion dollar companies.\n\nThere is nothing wrong with that. You are not a re-skinned Chromium browser. The core strength of Pale Moon will never be web compatibility, no matter how much work goes into Pale Moon.\n\nThe core strength of Pale Moon as I see it is single-process and thus low-end hardware that no other browser is suitable for. If you want privacy, customization and extensions there are other browsers available (not necessarily all in one package). But as far as I know there isn’t really another browser that can target low-end in the same way that Pale Moon can. I could be wrong about that. Most browsers seem to be Chromium or Firefox based and then multi-process will take its toll.\n\n* * *",
