Mypal: Difference between revisions

[https://github.com/Feodor2/mypal Mypal] is a discontinued fork of Moonchild Productions' [http://palemoon.org/ Pale Moon] browser, targeted primarily at [[Windows XP]]. It was developed by [https://github.com/Feodor2 Feodor2]. The latest version was <code>29.3.0</code> based on the respective version of Pale Moon. Like all browsers based on [https://github.com/MoonchildProductions/UXP UXP], it uses the Goanna rendering engine, a fork of [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Gecko Gecko].

Mypal was the default browser on [[VM2]], from March 2021 to 25/04/April 25th 2022, when it was replaced with [[Mypal 68]].

Due to the Pale Moon developers disliking the creation of forks for the use on Windows XP, and older operating systems in general, they decided all of a sudden that the browser was no longer in line with the MPL (Mozilla Public License), and therefore created a GitHub issue to complain about it. Many things happened, but Feodor was essentially bullied into discontinuing the browser. The final version can still downloaded from its [https://mypal-browser.org/ website], and a mirror of the source code can be found [https://github.com/ManchildProductions/MyPal here].
