Even the Mozilla Firefox ESR version for OS X 10.6.8 is a year old now. Mozilla Firefox ESR last update for OS X 10.6.8 was last May 2017. So, no more supported web browsers for OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard, any longer.
- On August 2, 2016, Firefox 48.0 was released. It is scheduled to be replaced by Firefox 49.0 on September 13, 2016. At that point, Mac users using OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, 10.7 Lion, and 10.8 Mountain Lion will be left behind by the current versions of Firefox. It will be a sad day, as Firefox is the last major browser to support Mac OS X 10.6.
