You mean, there'll be anything left of current 5% after FF57 hits?

Too bad, Firefox is the only somewhat usable browser. With enough
extensions (hello 57...) it's possible to beat some basic security into it,
while Chromium has built-in spyware even in that "incognito mode" snake oil
that can't be disabled by extensions. Pale Moon guys, while their heart is
in the right place, don't seem to be doing well.

On the other hand, I don't quite see what's the point of sound in a WWW
browser. From time to time, someone insists you to view something on
YouTube (because it's so hard to write that instead...) but that's a matter
of clicking "download" then using a proper media player.
