    FYI, the Firefox release updates are complete as of today. Firefox 96.0 was in functional freeze since January 4; today, January 11, Version 96.0 is the current stable release.

    Similarly, the Firefox Extended Support Release was also updated; it’s now listed as Version 91.1.5.

    Beta and Nightly versions are now regularly updating until the next functional freeze. The schedule link that I previously shared contains the details of this information.

    I have not seen the Debian repository updates to reflect either 91.1.5 ESR or 96.0; a few Linux distributions already started pulling in Firefox 96 late yesterday.

    I noticed a copy and paste issue that still affects the new versions, unfortunately. I overcame the issue by copying things I wanted to paste into an external text editor (instead of the contents of another tab), then pasted the contents from the editor, then the defect of copy/paste between tabs did not resurface).

    Note that if you DO want any of these updates, they’ll have to come from Mozilla sources until either Debian or antiX picks them up in their repositories.
