Fierfox 38.8 ESR, released 2016-04-25.
Gmail:
(Yes, I know the latest and 'greatest' FF is in the 50's.)
-
2016-04-25 is a bit more than 1 day ago.
-
Also, the current ESR release is on v45.5.0. v38.8 is a bit old even for ESR releases.

So 7 months is "extended support" for Mozilla? I really wouldn't even be surprised...
-
@Maciejasjmj ESRs are supported for a full year, with a three-month overlap between releases
-
Everyone knows that FF22 is the best.

Which is still way too short for ESR.

Extended support compared to 2 weeks standard support.
It's all a question of perspective.

Extended support isn't supposed to keep you on FF 22 forever. It's to give you security updates and enough time to find and solve or work around any breaking issues you might have in a new version, and then upgrade you.

Funny, all the newer versions seem to just introduce more breaking issues.

Mine just upgraded to version 50.0. Is 38.8 really from this year? They've run through that many version numbers in such a short time?!
I look forward to what Firefox version 3,448.2.0 brings us in January.

nah. they've been artificially inflating that number at every opportunity to try and get the number higher than Chrome's
after all a higher version number means a newer and better product.

So Windows ME is best Windows if ME is actually a high-base number!

Not XP? Surely XP > ME, so long as you're working in base 34 or higher.

Well, about every 6 weeks, it's a major upgrade. The .X of v.X only seems to be patch releases in the middle of the sprint. (At least that's what it looks like... - you know, agile!)

It's a fucking web browser. Its sole purpose is to display web pages. Fixing bugs and security issues is the only thing that needs to be done. Not an endless parade of pointless bullshit "features".

But, but, I heard that in FF 99.0 they're introducing a feature to remove extraneous apostrophes...

This was postponed to v.121.
So you'll get that feature 3 days later

As long as people continue to expect a simple, stateless protocol to be the infrastructure for rich, stateful applications, expect more of the same.

I have occasional interaction with a complicated stateful remote application protocol. :do_not_want.nsf:

There's these things called HTML, CSS, and JavaScript which sometimes change...

Use IE11. Guaranteed to get security patches until at least 2025 and no interface changes ever.

The simple stateless protocol is fine. It is the HTML + CSS +
JavaECMAScript data format—especially the middle part—that is a haphazard pile of features that is both insanely complicated to implement and insanely complicated to use.

A clusterfuck UI has nothing to do with "infrastructure for rich, stateful applications"
Removing features that people actually use and adding features that nobody wanted or asked for has nothing to do with "infrastructure for rich, stateful applications".
