When we saw the
first days of Firefox and the long development cycles of browsers at the
time, it is very strange to think that we are already at version 50 of

Perhaps much more important, Firefox now supports native emojis for older systems not doing so like Windows 7 or Linux. The conversations on the social networks will be again understandable and the emojis should be displayed in the URLs.
Finally on PC, Firefox is now compatible with more HTML5 video on the web protected by DRM thanks to the support of WebM EME on Widevine CDM.
