    @loaExMachina @unexposedhazard I have Pale Moon installed for testing purposes but as a general use browser it’s pretty useless on the modern web since the developer REFUSES to allow it to support the Widevine plug-in making it useless for watching streaming video. It won’t even load YouTube videos properly.

      Not supporting DRM on the web is a concious choice I support, you should have base Firefox for your proprietary tech consumptions

        The lack of sandboxing is concerning though. Regardless of DRM needs. After all a web browser is basically a JavaScript runtime environment that runs code from all over the web. Having that not be sandboxed is a serious risk, even on operating systems like Linux where applications generally run with restricted privileges.
