I will say it's odd for me that we care about the publisher but not the author or the illustrator. I am still expecting to see the "writer" filed somewhere and when I don't i initially think i screwed up and used the wrong thing before i remember we dont

I hate that ff doesn't let you have more than one instance of it one at once, so I can't have ancient and 34 or 38 or 45 open at once to compair thme

CatQuest
oooo
2016-04-20 11111, 2016
Leo_Verto
isn't it basically just a config setting and launching it with -p to select a different profile?
2016-04-20 11120, 2016
kepstin
once you have the profiles set up, it's a matter of just starting firefox with a different -P option to select profile, yes
2016-04-20 11132, 2016
kepstin
so you can make shortcuts for each version with a different -P option
2016-04-20 11143, 2016
CatQuest
uh how do you do that? o mena i clic kan icon. how do i add -p to it

you should be able to add launch options to launchers though
2016-04-20 11123, 2016

the issue is that stuff in other applications that opens a browser uses the firefox 'remote' mode, and to get multiple profiles running requires disabling the remote on (some?) of them.

so on linux, you use 'firefox -P otherprofile -no-remote' to start up an alternate firefox, but then apps opening links in the browser behave strangely :/
2016-04-20 11137, 2016
CatQuest
kepstin: ick :(
2016-04-20 11110, 2016
Leo_Verto
it should be good enough for testing different browser versions against each other though
2016-04-20 11114, 2016
kepstin
so I'd suggest having a 'main version' that you start without the -no-remote option, and then alternate testing versions with -no-remote that you only open occasionally
2016-04-20 11128, 2016
kepstin
note that '-no-remote' doesn't work on windows.

but yeah, the only versions of firefox you really need to test in are latest current release and oldest supported esr release.
2016-04-20 11146, 2016
kepstin
the esr overlap when they switch versions is only 2 months long
2016-04-20 11113, 2016
kepstin
although testing with aurora (aka dev edition) as well is a good idea, since it gives you advance warning of breakages
2016-04-20 11129, 2016

kan dere si som oppdater hele tida :(
2016-04-20 11141, 2016

nice, I suppose we'll just drop support for everything until last-but-one esr release then
so support 38 ESR until May 31, then after that you only need to support 45 ESR :)
2016-04-20 11133, 2016

since anyone on 38 isn't getting security updates anyways, so you can just blame issues on viruses.

remember I'm autisitc. i have derp issues
2016-04-20 11157, 2016
kepstin can't actually remember what changed between 38 and 45 - iirc the UI is very similar?
2016-04-20 11134, 2016

so i guess the main issue would be if you're using extensions/themes that stopped working
2016-04-20 11154, 2016

the breakage of bb for older browser versions is mostly caused by small new features our dependencies use being introduced
