    TIL they even kept it around that long.

    There is no 32 bit hardware capable of running a recent FF version, let alone browse the www with it.

    remember the 32 to 64 bit transition 15-20 years ago, respect for people still running PCs that old

    Good. Honestly it’s staggering they’ve supported it for this long. It’s hard to envisage such an old system browsing the web using Firefox, the modern web is so bloated that any 32-bit system will seriously struggle.

    It’s much better to have that developer/testing effort spent elsewhere. Mozilla doesn’t exactly have the infinite resources that Google has.

    I believe you can still compile it, but you will get no fixes or help with problems from Mozilla.
