Judging by the version number, you would think that Firefox 70 is a massive update to the open-source and cross-platform web browser built by Mozilla, but it’s not really a major release. However, it does bring some a fresh new look for its icon, new welcome screen, and an extended dark mode for the built-in pages. So the first thing you’ll notice after installing Firefox 70, which you can download right now for GNU/Linux, macOS, and Windows systems, it’s the new Firefox icon that was unveiled by Mozilla a few months ago. In addition, you’ll notice that all of Firefox’s built-in pages now follows the system dark mode preference and a new welcome screen will help you setup Firefox faster.
