Version 84.0, first offered to Release channel users on December 15, 2020
We'd like to extend a special thank you to all of the new Mozillians who
contributed to this release of Firefox.
2020 was a year like no other. By March, the world dramatically changed.
Despite that, we kept our schedule to release a new Firefox every month to
keep Firefox working for you. While we eagerly look to the end of 2020, we
thought to take stock of this unprecedented year. Along with all that is new
with this release, see our list of top features that made 2020 a little
easier.

New︰
Native support for macOS devices built with Apple Silicon CPUs brings
dramatic performance improvements over the non-native build that was shipped
in Firefox 83: Firefox launches over 2.5 times faster and web apps are now
twice as responsive (per the SpeedoMeter 2.0 test). If you are on a new Apple
device, follow these steps to upgrade to the latest Firefox.

WebRender rolls out to MacOS Big Sur and Windows devices with Intel Gen 5
and 6 GPUs. Additionally we'll ship an accelerated rendering pipeline for
Linux/GNOME/X11 users for the first time, ever!
Firefox now uses more modern techniques for allocating shared memory on
Linux, improving performance and increasing compatibility with Docker.
Firefox 84 is the final release to support Adobe Flash.
