This means 123 is now beta and 122 giving the ability to visit ipv6 sites (which i am looking forward to) should be out soon. Then its just a matter of waiting for Fennec F-Droid to be built and released.

After fennec comes mull.

The circle of life

Lol. I found some of my sites broke with mull which is why i use fennec. I figure its an alright middle ground between firefox on one end and mull on the other.

The whole point of Mull is to break things, it's a feature. Privacy is very important to the dev, the modern web is anti privacy. If that isn't for you that's fine. They list workarounds with the caveats.

to.visit ipv6 sites

Could you specify? To my knowledge this was alreay possible?!

[–] shortwavesurfer@lemmy.zip 5 points 9 months ago (2 children)

You could do it on desktop version of Firefox by entering the IP address directly. And you could do it on the mobile version of Firefox by adding a bookmark to a website and then changing the URL to the IP address. But you could not enter the IP address directly into the address bar. Instead of treating it as an IP address, it would treat it as a search string.

Thank you. Never tried it on mobile. And i completely overread the android part.

I noticed this problem when I tried Yggdrasil.

Fennec just updated to 121.1 for me

[–] shortwavesurfer@lemmy.zip 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Define "just". Its been out since 1/15 (8 days) and i have had it most of that time.

[–] Asudox@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Weird. Something might have been wrong at my end.

Check your update settings in fdroid because your repositories might not be updating quickly.

Firefox Android version 122 was released today so be on the lookout on about the 27th for fennec 122.
