For those similarly interested in what "Goanna-based" meant, it's a hard fork from the old XUL mozilla engine: https://www.palemoon.org/technical.shtml#Firefox_Differences https://www.palemoon.org/technical.shtml#Firefox_Differences They say it's based on ESR 52 of FF: https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/UXP#unified-xul-platform-uxp https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/UXP#unified-x... and there are a ton of ifdefs in their license https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/UXP/src/branch/master/toolkit/content/license.html https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/UXP/src/branc... If I was a more adventurous person, I'd dig up the CVEs from FF 52 until now and see if they were backported

Considering the attack surface and lines of code alone, I wouldn't recommend it for anyone. They just don't have the resources to secure it in this more malicious Internet.

  My Internet is not malicious enough to not use and love this browser on my own websites. I wouldn't browse any site with third-party JS on it, but for trusted sites it is a pleasure and a breath of fresh air to use.
