This release is based on Firefox 153 instead of 140. Expect ALL themes to be broken in some way or the other.

Changelog

  • Updated the Firefox base to ESR 153.
  • Added the Brightwork ABI 2 from Marble.
  • Restored legacy XUL extension support, including chrome overlays, RDF manifests, bootstrapped add-ons, legacy SDK components, embedded extensions, and WebExtension bridging.
  • Added XUL themes section to Add-ons Manager.
  • Added system-accent colors, custom light and dark palettes, shared palettes, per-component colors, and opacity controls.
  • Added the old Firefox 140 autofill appearance behind nocturne.ui.oldautofill.
