Unable to access sites such as Netflix #113

Hello, when trying to access sites like Netflix using waterfox classic version 2022.04, it will not play any videos, it tries to download an extension called "microsoft silverlight" and then completely freezes and crashes the browser. I am running macos 10.8.5 on an i7 2012 macbook pro with 8gb of ram. The steps to recreate this are as follows (make sure DRM content is enabled beforehand) -Open netflix on the browser -sign in and go to the home page -wait 10-20 seconds -browser crashes
