What’s new in Mozilla Firefox 92

macOS

  • The update makes it support images containing ICC v4 profiles.
  • macOS VoiceOver now correctly reports buttons and links marked as “expanded” with the aria-expanded attribute.
  • The bookmark menu follows the visual style of Firefox

Improve

  • Mozilla has redesigned the certificate error page for a better user experience.
  • The update of the Firefox browser ensures that JavaScript memory management is more efficient and uses less memory.

As usual, some issues have been fixed in this version.

  • If you install or update Thunderbird after Firefox, the performance of Firefox will not decrease when running with a screen reader and accessibility services and tools.
  • An open alert in one tag no longer causes performance problems with other tags using the same process.

WebRender

  • Mozilla is planning to provide WebRender with Firefox 92 to all Firefox users, and we must wait to see if the organization has any claims about it.
  • So far, arewewebrenderyet reports “Yes” to confirm that WebRender is fully enabled on all devices.
