After 96th version in which they introduced new features such as improvements in videos, SSRC fixes, WebRTC and less noise, Mozilla launched yesterday Firefox 97. It is noteworthy that in the release note There is only one novelty collected as such, and it is one that very few users will take advantage of. The change is for Windows users, and it's not that those working on Microsoft's system are in the minority; is that it is a visual change for Windows 11.
As of Firefox 97, the fox browser, or red panda for the purists, supports and displays the new style of Windows 11 scrollbars. Sorry for not opening my Windows 11 virtual machine to add a screenshot, but I only touch it when strictly necessary, and I don't exactly enjoy it when I do. Among the other new features, we also have one for macOS, where the loading of system fonts has been improved, which makes opening and switching to new tabs faster in certain situations.
Other new features in Firefox 97
Mozilla warns that on February 8 the 18 color themes of version 94 of the browser expired. The company highlights that “you can keep the theme, as long as it is used by the expiration date. In other words, if a "colorway" is "enabled" in the plugin manager, that colorway is ours forever.«. For everything else, several bug fixes and new policies have been implemented in the latest version of Firefox, several security fixes have been included, and some bugs fixed by the community, all available in this release note.
Firefox 97 can now be downloaded from the official website, and is now available as an update in the software center of many Linux distributions. Also available in Flatub y Snapcraft.
