Mint partners with Mozilla |
|
The Linux Mint team is partnering with Mozilla to distribute the Firefox web browser. The effort is intended to make the Firefox browser on Mint look and perform more like Firefox running on other platforms while reducing the maintenance burden on the Mint team. "For Mozilla, the goal is to make Firefox work the same way across all platforms to ease maintenance and simplify development and bug fixing. With these changes Firefox will give the same experience in Linux Mint as it does in other operating systems. For us, this change means a tremendous simplification in terms of maintenance and development. We used to build Firefox ourselves using Ubuntu’s packaging (which is set to be discontinued as Ubuntu is moving towards Snap). We now package the Mozilla version of Firefox instead." Details of the partnership can be found in Mint's announcement. |
