This version includes important security updates to Firefox.
Highlights of Thunderbird 142 include support for adding visual signatures to PDF attachments opened in Thunderbird, support for resetting custom folder sorting in the folder pane via a new ‘Reset Folder Order’ option, and folder copy support within mail server accounts and local folders.
Firefox 143 looks like a solid release for Android users as it adds support for xHE-AAC audio playback, support for viewing the download progress in real time with controls to pause, resume, retry, or cancel directly from the Downloads screen, and improved support for persistent notifications to properly open Firefox with the relevant web page.
Firefox 142 introduces support for a flexible exception list in the Enhanced Tracking Protection (ETP) Strict mode, which should fix broken site features caused by tracker blocking. Exceptions are split into baseline (core functionality) and convenience (extra features), so you can opt for improved site compatibility without compromising key privacy protections.
Claudio is responsible for bringing tourists to his community. Up until early 2025, that meant riding a boat across the River Chagres to the nearest place with Internet or a phone line, where he would arrange the day’s visits with tour guides living in the city. He is an Emberá, an Indigenous group living in Panama.
Almost exactly 3 years ago we left Drupal behind. We started posting in a static site/page generator that we had developed. We've not looked back with any regret. It was the right thing to do.
In the coming years and hopefully decades we'll try to encourage other sites to do the same. With LLMs and their bots, the Web has become a nasty place. Running a site is harder now than it was one or two decades ago. With a static site/page generator is a lot easier to cope though. █
