Oh! Fx Beta also offers ZIPs.

Looking through mozilla ftps is a weird thing I used to do more frequently than I should (especially for someone who only ever sticks with stable releases back then).

 

[suikun245]

Like I'm only doing it now, because I want a more up-to-date alternative than what's available. And is taking advantage of various loopholes.

 

[suikun245]

I would prefer stable ZIPs, but they don't offer those anymore, so whatever?

 

[suikun245]

I'll just go into beta and alpha land.

 

[suikun245]

Acctually now that I look at it, Developer is Alpha 2. Nightly is Alpha 1.

 

[suikun245]

So, the nightly channel is literally nightly new stuff.

Aurora channel is probably, "Oh hey, yesterday's nightly stuff worked. Let's add it to Aurora."

 

[suikun245]

There has to be an offset, or else the Aurora channel would be the same as nightly, but with fancier features.

 

[suikun245]

But then again, I could be wrong regardless, since I'm too lazy to look into it.

 

[suikun245]

It's not like the Chromium project which flat out lists which channel is which.

 

[suikun245]

Where stable is stable. beta is mostly stable. developer is updated one or two times a week and is just a summary of good nightly builds. while nightly is nightly.

 

[suikun245]

Though, I'm still not entire fond of the Rapid Release concept.

 

[suikun245]

I mean it works for Chrome.

 

[suikun245]

Where the whole goddamn thing is auto-updated without you even knowing.

 

[suikun245]

You open Chrome. Bam. It looks different.

 

[suikun245]

But Firefox always had this thing where it BOTHERED you about updates. And when you are applying an update, it kind of makes it obvious. :| Or at least Seamonkey still makes it super obvious. Since I don't use Firefox as a primary or secondary browser outside of these school computers. (I mostly use it as tertiary???)

So Rapid Release just became a bit of a burden?

 

[suikun245]

Seamonkey is kind of following the Rapid Release, but not as rapid. lol

 

[suikun245]

It's got slower development. And most of the updates they do push out are either security or just updates to Gecko.

 

[suikun245]

Aka, something big enough from Firefox that is applied to the core system is out.

 

[suikun245]

*shrug*

I use Seamonkey for my school email.
