The important ones will be immediately fixed, so I think waiting for X.0b3 is enough to avoid them. I just like to wait for the third build (like 85.0b3) because X.0b1 comes straight from Nightly and some unnoticed bugs may only be reported by DevEd/Beta population. I recommend DevEd/Beta to everyone, it's very stable and you receive updates a month earlier than normal Firefox. You can reuse your "normal" profile on DevEd, you can have a unique profile for Beta. But even that is not relevant, as you can use the profile you want with the version you want. For 99,9% of users, including developers, there is no practical difference because they're not interested in Experiments.Īh, and I think Beta tries to reuse the same profile from your "normal" Firefox, while DevEd tries to create its own. Beta and DevEd are identical apart from branding and DevEd ability to enable Experiments. DevEdition has the Dev button placed by default on the bar (but every version have this button, you just need to manually place it), DevEd uses dark theme on DevTools (you can change this on every version), DevEd enables Compatibility tab on Inspector (you can also enable/disable it on every version). Apart from branding (name, icon), they are virtually identical. You can look at the differences between DevEd and Beta here:īoth have exactly the same stability, as the source is the same. You can modify those prefs on both versions so they aren't real differences. Except by this, all other differences between DevEd and Beta are just a couple of about:config prefs set by default. Developer Edition is 12 weeks ahead of the regular version of Firefox with adding support for the latest additions to web standards. Firefox stable (aka "release"), Beta and ESR are blocked for security reasons. Hope this is the right place to ask for this little issue. They update ~3 times per week, but for major version updates (like from 83 to 84, from 84 to 85) there's a gap of 8~12 days.ĭevEd and Nightly can run Experiments/legacy addons by enabling (this pref has no effect on Beta). Working Firefox 32bit developer edition was updated to 64bit now doesn't work anymore Hallo everybody I am new just registered few minutes ago. So DevEd and Beta shares the same code and updates. DevEd used to have its own channel (aurora), but years ago this changed and since then DevEd is using mozilla-beta.
