I don't see a legacy-browser version after 1.1.4.

Would you please keep providing uMatrix for the above mentioned browsers?

Duplicate of #824.

Support is dropped for Firefox legacy.

SeaMonkey and Pale Moon are not firefox. They are legacy in the sense they offer more control for their users.
I would repeat an argument I made long while ago, regarding the same issue about uBlock:
Why would the minority (of users who wish to use such browsers) lose a valuable tool?

One can argue that Firefox's way is the right one, but don't we, users of other browsers have a right to enjoy the same protection as FF and Chrome users?

I did not mean to duplicate a previous issue. I meant my issue as a request to you:
Please, keep supporting these browsers for the sake of such users who wish to keep away from the main stream FF and Chrome.

As stated numerous time, I don't have the time.

Volunteer developers who are on GitHub have a real life outside GitHub. I wish our choice as developer to decline requests for our own reasons was respected, not argued.

Sorry, this wasn't meant as an argument, and I do respect both your time and your contribution to us, users.
I simply wanted to highlight an angle.
Thank you again for your hugely valuable tools.
