The Mozilla Firefox 118 web browser is now available for download ahead of its official release on September 26th, when it will be rolling out to various of the supported platforms.
I consider Firefox 118 a major release because it finally brings the built-in translation feature for websites. Previously planned for Firefox 117, the new translation feature will let you automatically translate websites from one of the supported languages to another.
The translation feature can be accessed from a new “Translate page” menu entry in the application menu (the hamburger menu on the far right side of the window). When clicked, a pop-up dialog will open in place to let you choose the languages you want to translate from and to.
You need to look up the capabilities of modern HTML/JS/CSS. Hell, trying to run old browsers now breaks a huge number of sites that rely on modern browsers to do very simple things and do them effectively. Also, you know, using accelerated graphics to render things makes things a ton faster and smoother than the old days.
You’re caught up in the “older is better” mentality without any justification as to why certain older things are better. Some things have evolved and rightfully so, like browsers.
No, I’m not caught up in this and no, I don’t need to look that up, because I’m a software developer doing mostly web stuff. somewhere earlier in this thread I also mentioned the older version can’t do new HTML. However, most things websites do have earlier been done with less capable, less optimized HTML, CSS and JS (and plugins like flash).
