Pale Moon

Pale Moon is an open‑source web browser that runs on Windows, macOS and Linux, built on its own maintained platform and the Goanna rendering engine. It emphasizes efficiency and ease of use while providing a high degree of user control through full theming and support for legacy XUL extensions, allowing users to tailor the interface and functionality to their preferences.

The browser prioritizes privacy and security, operating without telemetry and incorporating clear site‑identity indicators along with regular security updates derived from its independent codebase. It also offers tools such as a sync service, profile backup, tab grouping, and a flash‑protected mode to enhance the browsing experience.

Pale Moon targets users who value a customizable, privacy‑focused alternative to mainstream browsers and who may rely on older Firefox add‑ons that are no longer supported elsewhere. Its stable release status reflects ongoing maintenance and security patching.
