    This is the first I’ve heard of LibreWolf. Is it compatible with Windows 7? And also, why is it good?

        Main features: … Continued support for NPAPI plugins like Silverlight, Adobe Flash and Java

        Picture this in your minds eye: a Windows 7 machine running a browser with still working Flash and Java plugins, connected to the internet in 2024.

        what do you see?

        i see a flourishing ecosystem of worms, viruses and rootkits, all trying to be the one species to get to be the one who does the most damage to the prey species, the common user.

          Sounds like an interesting experience to me. Admittedly I hadn’t looked that far into it. If Win 7 is a must I’d say just go with latest Firefox.

      You really shouldn’t connect windows 7 to the internet.
