As always, we announced the release of Firefox 72 early. Release is scheduled to begin today, January 7, for all supported GNU / Linux, macOS and Windows platforms.

The specific αναπτύσσεται από τις αρχές Δεκεμβρίου του 2019 και υπόσχεται να φέρει τα video controls Picture-in-Picture (PiP) στις πλατφόρμες GNU/Linux και macOS, καθώς οι χρήστες των Windows είχαν ήδη την PiP from Firefox version 71.

Picture-in-Picture is enabled by default, so after upgrading to Firefox 72, Linux and MacOS users can finally watch videos from different webpages in one window while working on other tabs by selecting the blue icon on the far right of a video.

Firefox 72 also continues to improve the program's built-in Enhanced Tracking Protection feature s, blocking by default all supported operating systems (Linux, MacOS and Windows) from fingerprinting scripts.

Among other notable changes in Firefox 72, we can mention that annoying pop-up notification requests have been replaced by a speech bubble that will appear in the address bar when you interact with a site and will not interrupt your browsing.

Firefox 72 also adds support for client usage from the operating system certificate store in Windows.
