I would like to ask you for supplementing system requirements for Firefox on Linux machines presented on pages like this, https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/133.0/system-requirements/ All the requirements shown for Firefox 133 on this page are satisfied in my Linux Fedora 20 with versions of the required libraries updated but Firefox cannot start GUI. As this concerns all Firefox versions newer than Firefox 95 that has the same requirements concerning Linux system and is functional in my system I have filed a bug report to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1938497 Almost immediately I have seen the comment below my report, "Fedora 20 saw its end of life 114 months ago. Nobody cares about supporting Fedora 20 anymore." with status RESOLVED WONTFIX that means, "The problem described is a bug which will never be fixed." This means that some other requirements exist whence maybe a minimal number of Linux distribution should be noted as required for new Firefox versions to work. For "older" Linux users this would save them a lot of time.

Fedora 20 is rather old as it was released Dec 17, 2013. Packages support for it ended June 2015.

Putting in a list of specific versions of Linux distros would be a lot of work to keep on top of considering there are a LOT of Linux distros out there big and small as you can see on https://distrowatch.com/ and https://distrowatch.com/dwres.php?resource=popularity for example.

Also the other issue is there are multiple ways to install Firefox on Linux. The official tarbal from Mozilla, .deb, .rpm, Flatpak, Snap and building from source yourself etc. Some can potentially have their own little differences in requirements.
