If you do not must have the newest <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Firefox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Firefox</a> version, do not update it till the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/mozilla" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mozilla</a> fix this issue.

Egal, welche Linux man im Endeffekt nimmt: man muss sich immer irgendwo umgewöhnen. Die Apps kann man ja oft schon unter dem alten BS ausprobieren. Das sollte man tun, dann ist die Umgewöhnung einfacher.
