About this tag
The end of life browser tag covers discussions about browsers that have reached their official end-of-life status, meaning they no longer receive security updates or technical support from their developers. A key example is Firefox 115 ESR, which will end support for Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 in February 2026.
