Firefox 76 shipped last tuesday and included improvements to password manager and picture-in-picture. A couple of regressions were quickly identified and fixed. The dot release shipped Friday. | |||
* Firefox 77 is in the Beta channel. This version hits our stable release audience on June 2nd. | |||
* Firefox 78 has been in the nightly channel for one week and has seen about 360 bug fixes including these notable changes: | |||
** [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1434601 Firefox will no longer allow the screen saver to interrupt WebRTC calls.] | |||
** Firefox's [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1164187 WebRTC implementation now has support for RTX.] Jitsi favors RTX over other methods for retransmission of lost packets so this should help Jitsi support Firefox better. | |||
** Also for WebRTC, Firefox [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1625803 Nightly now supports the transport-cc bandwidth estimation extension.] This sender-side bandwidth estimation (originally implemented in bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1606823 1606823) is used by Jitsi and so this makes Firefox and Jitsi work better together. | |||
** For performance and privacy improvements to DNS, Gecko now supports [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1623126 HTTPSSVC.] | |||
** [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1636482 WebRender is now allowed on all supported versions of Windows] where before it was only allowed on Windows 10. | |||
** [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1630912 Direct manipulation, a pre-requisite to desktop pinch zooming, has landed preffed off in Nightly.] | |||
** [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1632794 A barebones Process Manager, about:processes, has landed in Nightly.] | |||
