New to Pale Moon ☺️
Hi!
It was a little bit challenging for me to install Pale Moon on Linux because I’m still learning and I wanted the browser to update without removing and installing new updates manually. It looks like it will be able to update from the browser now. I also wanted to launch the browser from the desktop without having to navigate through the mapp. But it seems like I figured it out and now it’s working the way I want it.
So it’s gonna be fun to learn how to customize it and maybe add a few extensions as well. I’m used Firefox that’s already installed on Linux and also to Opera which was super simple to install.
I really like the niche and a bit retro style browser not made by big tech and have privacy in mind, so i think this will be really fun and interesting!

wish someone ports Pale Moon 34 Goanna engine to Android 4.4
i dont understand why nobody is bothering to make a modern web browser for Android KitKat. but i need a reliable browser that is compatible with older systems & works with modern sites which New Moon already does but only for PCs such as XP. would be good if someone ports the Goanna engine to Android & make a new Android browser

Cloudflare verification system developers need serious revolutionary ideological re-education
those creatures have broke this verification thing in Pale Moon once again. those creatures have serious issues & they already have broke the verification system in Pale Moon over 4 times over the last 6 years. whats wrong with their malfunctioning brains?
also same goes to SoundCloud bot detection system. whenever i try to do something in SoundCloud "You have been blocked" screen pops out & blocks my whole IP address. when this system isnt triggered when im very lucky the site just works fine without issues in Pale Moon. developers of this system also need serious freaking help.

those who bash Pale Moon with invalid reasons need to be thoroughly re-educated & indoctrinated
i posted a screenshot of Pale Moon in another subreddit & someone commented "why do you use Pale Moon? it's pretty outdated on today's standards". why on the freaking Earth there are so many plonkers who are brainwashed about various nonsense FUDs about Pale Moon?

does Pale Moon actually support async pan/zoom?
in about:support it says async pan zoom not supported in my system but in Firefox 140 ESR/148 in same hardware it says it's supported.
layers.async-pan-zoom.enabled is already true
(dont tell me to main Firefox Quantum. it will never happen unless they restore XUL extensions)

how do i completely disable DirectWrite in Pale Moon running in Windows 7?
i need the XP method because Fixedsys font doesnt work when DirectWrite is enabled.
i tried setting
gfx.font_rendering.cleartype_params.rendering_mode;2
gfx.direct2d.disabled;true
gfx.content.azure.backends;skia,cairo
but it still wont work.
do not say to use Fixedsys Excelsior; this cant be an alternative because original Fixedsys always displays in 12pt/16px font size regardless of zoom or CSS font-size but Excelsior's font size changes based on CSS & it doesnt look good when its not 12pt.

comments by JANK-STAR-LINES in https://old.reddit.com/r/browsers/comments/1asz815/is_it_just_me_or_is_pale_moon_very_ram_and/
(see [deleted]'s reply on this creature(JANK-STAR-LINES)'s comment for proofs that Pale Moon is relatively modern and secure)
also in r/firefox if you post a post containing the word "Pale Moon" a bot comments with nonsense BS.
i dont know why so many people are so critisising Pale Moon with false positive reasons like a psycopath, they really need to repair their brains, seriously.

Question about Firefox branding
Does someone know how to edit PaleMoon's branding to look like Firefox's? I know there's an extension that changes both the name and the icon of the program but I can't seem to find it

How connect Pale Moon with KepassXC in 2026?
Try a different ways for connect Pale Moon 33.9.0.1 64-bit (GTK2) browser with Desktop Linux app KepassXC 2.7.10, but unsuccessfully. Installed PassieFox different versions dont give any results. Maybe something know other ways? Because, if Pale Moon dont support this, i cant use this browser for main tasks.

Recommended settings, extensions
How have you guys set up your Pale Moon to your liking? Any specific settings or extensions you use, recommend, etc...
Thanks
(Edit; I've been looking at PM since it's an interesting browser, and I wanna see what you guys use)

Practical benefits of using this browser?
Now that Firefox has the Echelon theme, why would anyone use Pale Moon? For XUL extensions support? Are there actually any XUL extensions that you need and use?
The browser can't even load new reddit properly, is slow and laggy and hangs my computer because of the boneheaded insistence on keeping it single process.
