  > I've stopped visiting couple of sites because of CloudFlare. I keep using old Firefox with no scripts or ocassionally with uMatrix. Why do you use an out-of-date browser?

    BECAUSE Firefox is the most configurable and the most privacy-secured web browser that also gave fork to SilverFox, Tor Browser, LibreWolf, WaterFox, PaleMoon, GNU IceCat, Mull, KMeleon, Dot Browser, Basilisk, MyPal and IceRaven. Something that Chrome is unwilling to support.

      They're asking why you use an outdated version of Firefox, not why you use Firefox. Edit: I assume you're using it in the "Good 'ole Firefox" sense?

        same as uTorrent version 2.2.1 - the latest complete without bloat

        That would be even older Firefox til version 53 to browse ALL file, media, document formats (as well not free - so it's gone) using plugins of your choice..

    Every time I use newer version I'm losing something, context or results of what I do, and earlier or later browser will try to be smarter and behave not as expected, ignore my configurations etc. - morover to extensions which I need not working and removed functionality (no need for most of new fancy stuff - but a bit of it I'm missing). I think I will be stuck at 68esr for a while because of XBL which I like and see useful - then I'm not sure if I can afford that effort of possibly rewriting a lot to avoid surprises and make the browser working *for me* without need to fight him.
