"Firefox no longer supports 32-bit Linux systems. We recommend installing the 64-bit version for continued updates and support"

And I thought only Microsoft create e-waste.

All of the 5 people who use (non-ESR) Firefox on their 2002 Pentium 4s will certainly be very unhappy about this.

It's open source. If 32 bit support is important enough, people can fork and maintain it.

What e-waste? Your computer still works, you can install other browsers and apps 🤷‍♂️

unironically my measuring stick for a good ux is if the site is usable from lynx without knowing how to use lynx

Oh, memories 🤩

Ironically, I think it may be because of Skia. So Google.

I wanna say, "sarcasm?" 👏👏👏 At least, that's how I'm reading it.

Sure, but not obviously enough, maybe next time I mark it.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
