You can learn more about WebAssembly by watching the video below: I should also add that while Firefox 52 no longer supports NPAPI plugins other than Flash, there's a way around this - see below.Īnother major change in the latest Firefox 52 is the addition of WebAssembly, a standard that allows running complex web-based games and applications at near-native performance, without using plugins. However, Chrome GNOME Shell doesn't only support Chrome-based web browsers, but also Firefox.Īs for Google Hangouts, audio and video calls currently don't work in Firefox 52 due to dropping support for NPAPI plugins, however, Google is working on a "fix". In case you're wondering about the Firefox NPAPI plugin that allows installing extensions for GNOME Shell, it no longer works. This change is expected "later this year". But that's about to end, with Firefox 52.įurthermore, Mozilla plans to activate Flash in Firefox only with user consent. Dropping support for NPAPI plugins isn't something new in the web browsers world - Google Chrome did this back in 2015, leaving Mozilla Firefox as the best choice for those who had to use such plugins.
