From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Just post the actual patch notes instead of this blogspam.

We can do that when it's actually released; blogspam tries to publish on the expected release date before the actual release so it can scoop up the clicks. Release notes should be posted here later: https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/120.0/releasenotes/

I agree. I'd love a quick TL:DR or rundown.

Well, German users get a full new privacy feature re cookies, yet only for them. Why the hell are Mozilla geo fencing privacy improvements?

Most likely rolling it out to a "small" segment of the user base to find any edge case issues before rolling it out to everyone.

Privacy features lower ad revenue. This is not what they want.

There's no release notes yet and it's not available for download on the main release channel. Title is clickbait.
