Firefox passe en 80.0

Version 80.0, first offered to Release channel users on August 25, 2020

We'd like to extend a special thank you to all of the new Mozillians who contributed to this release of Firefox.
New

Firefox can now be set as the default system PDF viewer.

The name reported by accessibility tools for items in multi-tiered tree controls no longer incorrectly includes information from items at deeper levels, providing users with the correct level of content when using a screen reader.

Fixed

Various security fixes.

Several crashes while using a screen reader were fixed including a frequently encountered crash when using the JAWS screen reader.

Firefox Developer Tools received significant fixes allowing screen reader users to benefit from some of the tools that were previously inaccessible.

SVG title and desc elements (labels and descriptions) are now correctly exposed to assistive technology products such as screen readers.

Changed

For users with reduced motion settings, we’ve reduced a number of animations such as tab loading to reduce motion for users with migraines and epilepsy.

The new add-ons blocklist has been enabled to improve performance and scalability.

Enterprise

A number of bug fixes and new policies have been implemented in the latest version of Firefox. You can see more details in the Firefox for Enterprise 80 Release Notes.

Today’s release is the final scheduled for Firefox 68 ESR (68.12) unless there is a critical security issue found prior to the release of Firefox ESR 78.3 on September 22, 2020. Users of Firefox 68 ESR will be automatically upgraded to the Firefox 78 ESR series with the release of 78.3.

New
Native support for macOS devices built with Apple Silicon CPUs brings dramatic performance improvements over the non-native build that was shipped in Firefox 83: Firefox launches over 2.5 times faster and web apps are now twice as responsive (per the SpeedoMeter 2.0 test). If you are on a new Apple device, follow these steps to upgrade to the latest Firefox.

WebRender rolls out to MacOS Big Sur, Windows devices with Intel Gen 6 GPUs, and Intel laptops running Windows 7 and 8. Additionally we'll ship an accelerated rendering pipeline for Linux/GNOME/X11 users for the first time, ever!

Firefox now uses more modern techniques for allocating shared memory on Linux, improving performance and increasing compatibility with Docker.

Firefox 84 is the final release to support Adobe Flash.

Fixed
Various security fixes

Enterprise
