Go back and install firefox v1.0.x

OK you'll have to limit yourself to visiting http:// sites
or sites that are trailing-edge regarding their https:// requirements

And you'll be catapulted back to a time when quirks-mode mattered and 
css support was pretty poor.

But as a browser, how far forward has firefox actually come in nearly 20 
years?  It had a lot right back then.

How to slow down or pause the "progress" of html/css/js/webp/etc 
standards, so that browsers need ongoing maintenance rather than 
continuous re-development?

What's pushing the development apart from demands of marketing wank 
websites?

Yes it sounds like "stop the world, I want to get off" ... I'm getting old.
