Some interesting replies in this thread. Thanks for the input, everyone.

>Pale Moon is largely perceived as a peripheral experiment.

Perception or not, it's an incredibly secure browser that faithfully 
implements open web standards. What you present is a classic chicken and 
egg problem: Pale Moon won't get widespread use until it's perceived as 
being a valid option, and it won't be perceived as a valid option until it 
has widespread use.

>​About the falling of TiddlyFox, TiddlyDesktop is not a good choice​?

Personally, I don't like TiddlyDesktop because I don't want to have to have 
a separate application purely for TiddlyWiki. While it's a valid option in 
a pinch, when I think about optimizing my workflow, that doesn't include a 
separate web browser just for TiddlyWiki. For that reason it's not a 'real' 
option in my mind.

I have found a workaround for the fact that there isn't a "Save Tiddlywiki" 
shortcut key: I modified $:/core/modules/widgets/button.js to implement an 
"accesskey" option.  The "accesskey" property is something implemented by 
every browser for buttons, and is usually triggered by pressing Ctrl-Shift 
or Alt-Shift and the access key. I can show you my implementation if you 
would like.
