Firefox 129 Now Available With HTTPS Replacing HTTP As Default Protocol
Mozilla Firefox 129.0 is now available for download ahead of its formal release announcement on Tuesday
Making Firefox 129 notable is that for non-local sites it's now replacing HTTP with HTTPS by default. It's about time and should work out for the best although most websites are defaulting these days to promoting HTTP connections to HTTPS anyhow. The Firefox 129 release also has improvements to its reader view, Address Autofill now works in France and Germany, support for querying the encryption key system configuration via the media capabilities API, the Navigator.vibrate() method has been removed, and various other developer additions.
