Latest Unofficial SeaMonkey 2.53 by user wg9s

User wg9s offers several current SeaMonkey builds from latest Source:  SeaMonkey 2.49  | SeaMonkey 2.53  | SeaMonkey 2.57 | SeaMonkey trunk, all for WINDOWS and Linux. Not only because of this message

today I switched from Build 20190329130005 to latest available Server Installation of unofficial (by wg9s) en-US SeaMonkey 2.53 (NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:56.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/56.0 Build 20190122130014 (Default Classic Theme, German Language Pack active) on German WIN7 64bit. And the first thing I saw was that message again. Strange! AFAIR I only see that on my Browser Home Page, but I am not sure.

I will ask at mozilla.support.seamonkey.

UI completely broken in 2.56a1 Trunk ⚠️️

I used a newly created test profile

So (browser-) UI looks with official en-US SeaMonkey 2.56a1 (NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0 Build 20180119000058 SourceStamp=ae43fcf7b9ee449f0f0a573d10c93421dbe645bf || ID={92650c4d-4b8e-4d2a-b7eb-24ecf4f6b63a} (Default Classic Theme) on German WIN7 64bit.

May be developers should give some advice in which area and for which builds user-bugreports currently can be useful? I doubt that testing with current (WIN) trunk can yield any benefit 🤔.

🆕: official SeaMonkey 2.56 Nightly Trunk builds available

S e a M o n k e y y y    2.56   i i i n n   s i i i i g h h h h t ….

This blog post in German languageSince the day before yesterday we have SeaMonkey 2.56 Trunk builds available for testing here — for Linux and WINDOWS and Mac.

Only for testing, you will use those developer-builds on your own risk. I recommend to create a backup of your User Profile before you start testing those builds. My first experience with SeaMonkey 2.56 is that it is too buggy to be used, especially the email client causes lots of crashes.

Please consider that it even might be impossible to use an existing User Profile after downgrade to an earlier SeaMonkey version if you have used that Profile with a Nightly.
