@rafnov Yeah, personally now I'm using Vivaldi, but if old extensions will stop working then I will start using Floorp.

My advice is: drop it. At least as long they don't give a ... about users.

@rafnov Those mentioned fixes should be already in latest Waterfox version. In case of not responding at GitHub, I would say it's nothing new, they usually rarely reply.

Maybe you know what's wrong with the upstream? While most 3rd party Firefox clones hurry in fixing dangerous Firefox flaw: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2024-51/ the Waterfox do not respond. Not for PC, neither for Android it hasn't been fixed yet. I know we don't discuss Android version here, but worthy mention, as it shows upstrem attitude: they don't care. Autofill on Android is broken again, and no fix, while on many other clones it works flawlessly as on vanilla Firefox. Waterfox dev does not respond on github.

Should be the same as Firefox: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Firefox#HTML5_DRM/Widevine

I'm just wondering if there's a way to make DRM services like Netflix to work?

G6.0.10 is out now. This fails using yay. I was able to work around the failure by cloning the aur repo manually and got updated to G6.0.09. Again, G6.0.10 is out, so this needs updated.

The update 25 hrs ago fixed it for me.
