Hi,
I think icecat is ok. I’m probably wrong about this but what I understand is that icecat is being rebuilt after the rust bootstrap got merged. Upgrading icecat now requires building several versions of the rust compiler. I hope a substitute becomes available soon since it really does take a long time. I have a pretty nice set of hardware and it took nearly a day. I can’t imagine on an older machine.
