Imagine being able to surf the internet on your old Windows XP machine without feeling like you’re stuck in the past. Thanks to a dedicated developer, that’s now possible with MyPal68, an open-source modern web browser built specifically for Windows XP.
MyPal68 is based on Firefox 68 and is designed to provide a decent browsing experience on ancient hardware and software. While there are still some roadblocks and sites that won’t work properly, it’s impressive what the developer has achieved.
For those who still use or want to use Windows XP, this browser is a game-changer. It supports some extensions, uses Brave as the default search engine, and is overall “utterly brilliant.”
Of course, there are limitations – MyPal68 is based on outdated technology compared to modern standards. However, it’s remarkable that such a project exists, allowing users to browse the web without wanting to pull their hair out.
If you’re interested in trying MyPal68 for yourself, head to its GitHub repo, where you’ll find both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. As with any old software, be sure to take necessary precautions when connecting your Windows XP machine to the internet.
