You won't get a perfect match, but a 75% match might be possible.' Custom-built and speed optimized Firefox.' Write a list of the features that you 'need' and then look for a suitable alternative WebExtensions that have those features.

When you tire of using it, close it and open Firefox 56.0.2 for awhile.Īs far as TabMix Plus goes, do you know exactly what features you use from that extension? Or look for replacement WebExtensions from different developers. See what extensions are available and how they may differ from their Legacy versions. Install Portable Firefox 57 and slowly get accustomed to using it. What are you going to do as more new versions of Firefox are released? Just never update again? That isn't a wise thing to do - never updating Firefox again, that is. Admittedly not searched hard, but so far have not seen compelling new attractions.

Begrudge the time it will need to familiarise, tweak and investigate impact on my many extensions. Familiarity with 56 and no major gripes 'if it ain't broke.'.

I'm still reluctant to update, but will shortly try the 'portable' suggestion. Terrypin wrote:Thanks all for that helpful feedback.
