Love your work! and found a few useful hacks. Thanks.

Support for -moz-os-version was removed in FF58, presumably as it became ESR.

Check the test page at https://browserstrangeness.bitbucket.io/css_hacks.html (I made note of it on the individual hacks - this is valid for tracking specific versions - tested already) thanks for checking with me though.

Example: @media screen and (-moz-os-version:windows-xp), screen and (-moz-os-version:windows-vista), screen and (-moz-os-version:windows-win7) { .selector { property:value; } } Windows 7- (Firefox 25-57)

I was looking at that file and only found "Firefox 25+", hence the "issue" However I didn't read all of it. It's massive! :D

It's fine - I love the fact that you are looking at it actually. You are right, there are over 1000 of them -- I have been doing this for quite a few years now :)

so did I since Netscape Navigator 4... Care for a hack? I lost my browser hacks file a while ago in a HD crash and then didn't bother to rebuilt it. Most of it is purely academic.

Any you want to post here are fine. Maybe make a topic for old browser hacks or somesuch for historical reasons? I am pretty sure NN4 couldn't even load any of these pages, but this stuff is google-able :)

I am pretty sure NN4 couldn't even load any of these pages

well, sure not :) and for various reasons: an outdated SSL and TLS implementation for a start - it won't even connect over today's https, asserting certificates are invalid or corrupted. Even if it does load a non-SSL page: it'll choke on anything beyond "JavaScript 1.2". Same for the "Mozilla Suite" browser. But that's JavaScript for you unlike the subject of this repo :) No Google Fonts of course 'cos the JS fails, but there's no trouble with the HTML5 and CSS3+ though. It'l just drop the unknows and keeps moving on. However, there are several "IE only" hacks in your page that also apply to Navigator or older Mozilla Suite browsers.

You are correct :) Good info for readers.
