Firefox 52.9
Ever since Quantum came out, I have looked and looked for a replacement browser; however, Firefox ESR seems to be the best replacement. I just read the ESR lifecycle plan and noticed that 52.9.0 is going to end on 28 August 2018. Does that mean there are not any plans to keep pre-Quantum Firefox around?
Firefox ESR Releases. FirefoxESR-68.12.0; FirefoxESR-68.11.0; FirefoxESR-68.10.0; FirefoxESR-68.8.0.
- Firefox was released on November 9, 2004, and challenged Internet Explorer's dominance with 60 million downloads within nine months. Firefox is the spiritual successor of Netscape Navigator, as the Mozilla community was created by Netscape in 1998 before their acquisition by AOL.
- Easily deploy the Firefox browser on your network to thousands of clients. MSI for Mozilla Firefox. Lock down settings and manage the Firefox browser across the enterprise using Group Policy.FrontMotion Firefox Community Edition. Create a customized Firefox installer with extensions and certificates by using the Firefox Packaging Service.
I know this is a Mozilla forum, so I'm asking this in no hopes of getting an answer, but, if that's the case, does anybody know of a browser that can be made as secure as Firefox 52.x ESR? Note: I use a specific set of addons to help control what comes through my browser; for example, we have seen many Javascript attacks on systems trying to exploit the Meltdown/Spectre problems. In Quantum, I am wide open as the so-called JS toggle addons do nothing but obfuscate JS rather than switch the flag in about:config.

Thank you in advance.
