Simply find the version you're after and install it over your current one. I'm still on 28.0.

Ha, I was on 26 until last week. And in all that time (since late 2013), there's virually no performance increase for Firefox that I notice with the latest v37. The only reason I updated is some websites are begining to break because they dropped the use of Firefox's proprieratary tag -moz.

 

I hate Firefox stupid ugly design begining with 29 and the main reason I didn't upgrade. Wasted a few hours last week putting together the Chrome style tabs in stylish. If anyone want to use it to cover up the dreaded look of Firefox, you can find it on userstyles.org here.

Or you could have just used this extension. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-Us/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/?src=cb-dl-users

I don't want to have to install anothe extension and slowdown the already bloated Firefox.

 

Yeah, if you hate the theme you can change it, running outdated insecure versions is just opening yourself up for attack.

If you keep up a good practice of knowing what not to click, you should be fine. Also, Firefox update breaking extensions is another reason I didn't update and wait for the author to catch up.

It's only updated once a year, and during that year, gets security updates only. 

The current base is version 31, but it's about to switch over to version 38 latter this month.

 

It's target is enterprises that need a stable firefox with security updates, but no major changes on the browser / how it renders / engine.

You'd probably be better off using Pale Moon in this case if you hate the Australis UI.

Palemoon's colorized buttons are fisher pricy, and some extensions doesn't work with it.

 

v31 wasn't worth upgrading to, so gonna wait till 38.

    • I totally disagree. Very little good comes out of governments all around the world manipulating everything they can and usually the people are not the benefactors. What you say about being restricted and expensive sounds almost like the arguments against firearms and why banning them will protect people as if making something illegal somehow will prevent the criminals from having and using them. AI being far less mainstream could simply mean the average person will not benefit, but "big brother" and the corporations will benefit, which is almost for sure NOT a good thing.

    • "connect with audiences" is the most obvious corporate speak you can think of. I only bought Need for Speed from EA because it was the only racing game with cops in existence and I dig that. Now that they killed off NFS franchise, I have nothing to spend money on. EA is officially dead for me, just like Ubisoft which I've been boycotting for some 20 years now...
