Wondered if I was only one using a working SeaMonkey <grin>
I haven't heard anyone mention any feature of interest in the
more current releases.
I've been following this group regularly for > 4 years.
YMMV
<rolls eyes>
The MAIN feature of newer releases is: security fixes
Yes, I may have been called curmudgeon *BUT* I read your sentence
as saying that _no_ feature of interest has been added since 2.26.1 .
Here's a list of known vulnerabilities affecting older
versions of Seamonkey.
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/known-vulnerabilities/seamonkey/
That list doesn't even attempt to make your point.
The bug titles chosen give little hint as to what user is vulnerable.
I clicked on the first ~10 links.
Most explicitly reported a JavaScript problem or included "In
general this flaw cannot be exploited through email in the
Thunderbird product because scripting is disabled, but is
potentially a risk in browser or browser-like contexts."
I explicitly surf with JavaScript and cookies disabled. Is there
any other "scripting" I should be aware of? If so the site is
faulty for giving no hint of it.
One title ["URL spoofing in reader mode"] hinted at a possible
problem.
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/security/advisories/mfsa2015-103/
gives no hint as to what is "reader" mode.
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1195976 doesn't do
any better.
A web search reveals "reader mode" is peculiar to "mobile
devices". I don't own one. Therefore another irrelevant bug.
BTW https://validator.w3.org/ reports
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1195976 as having 57
Errors and 15 warnings.
Regards.
