Mozilla officially Firefox 67 update for Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android. This build was released a week later than expected and includes numerous performance improvements and new features. It is reported that Mozilla made several internal changes, including the "freezing" of unused tabs and lowering the priority of the setTimeout function during web page loading, among others.
However, most importantly, a built-in protection against cryptocurrency miners on web pages has been introduced. This feature has long been implemented in Opera. If Firefox suddenly starts using too much memory and CPU resources, you should activate the protection in the 'Custom Settings' and restart the browser.
Support for the high-performance dav1d AV1 decoder and registration with the FIDO U2F API has been added. The WebRender feature is now enabled by default for all Windows 10 users who have a computer with an NVIDIA graphics card.
This release also improves the private browsing mode, now allowing users to save passwords for websites and choose extensions they do not want to include on 'private' tabs. Additionally, the toolbar, menu, downloads, and more are now accessible via the keyboard.
Visual changes have also been made. In particular, it is now easier to access the list of saved website credentials. Bookmark import and other features have been simplified from the main menu.
The mobile version for Android has introduced a voice input widget for search. However, the guest login feature has been removed. Instead, private mode is recommended.
