4th Public Release - Linux and Windows - v.112.0.3
112 Stable
- Enabled more security for emailTP,emailTPPrivate streams (from upstream)
- Enabled WebAudio autoplay by default. Chromium and Firefox both have this blocked. I enabled it in Thorium and now here. This is useful because it is VERY rare for a site to use webaudio (via tone.js for example) to make intrusive or annoying stuff. I keep autoplay blocking enabled for everything else. But this lets stuff work correctly, for example the thorium dino game > https://thorium.rocks/games/dino/ Without this patch, you will not hear the music. Try the page in vanilla Chrome/Chromium or Firefox, and then try it in Mercury/Thorium, you will hear background music in the latter.
- Fixed Windows installer parameters.
- Added
mk_add_options MOZ_OPTIMIZE=1
to the mozconfigs, which should (theoretically) enable more performance optimizations.
3rd Public Release - Linux and Windows - v.111.0.2
- Stable build. All releases going forward will be based on stable Firefox, just like Thorium is now based on stable Chromium.
- Enabled JPEG-XL by default
- Enabled Widevine by default
- Reduced padding in the search bar
- Completely removed telemetry
Note: Haven't figured out how to make a .deb installer for Linux yet, but I have figured out how to make an .exe installer for Windows.

1st Public Release! v.110.0a1
- mozconfig updated
- branding dir updated
- about:settings bug fixed
For Linux x64 only. Should run on just about any desktop distro. Requirements are the same as Firefox > https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/108.0.2/system-requirements/
Performance is not as high as I would like, but it is still faster than vanilla firefox.
