Release notes show old news from 2023 and TB68 on top

[ThiloteE]

Hello Axel,

I noticed this before, but I thought maybe you will notice with time. It has been a while and it continues to be the case, so here I am writing up this report. Have a look:

I suppose this is not intended?

Yeah - thanks for flagging this. The top of the pages are really quite old, I need a more "modular" system so this stuff doesn't happen in the future. I will update that section for now.

Also, I think you need to reload the page, this could be a cached version? Let me move this to the quickFilters Github...

Latest News (09/07/2026) - Thunderbird ESR153 Transition

The next Thunderbird ESR version (ESR153) is imminent! ESR (Extended Support Release) versions receive security updates for longer periods, making them ideal if you prioritize stability. Thunderbird follows the Firefox release cycle, with ESR receiving enhancements annually and point releases for security fixes. We recommend switching from the Release branch to ESR153 in July 2026.

There was discussion about discontinuing Release branch support for legacy Add-ons like quickFilters, but this decision has been postponed to next year. We will continue to support both Release and ESR branches for now.

Technical Update: We have raised the minimum required Thunderbird version to 140 to eliminate technical debt and focus development effort on current Thunderbird versions. This allows us to use modern APIs and remove legacy code paths.
