Zen Browser has released version 1.21.12b as a hotfix to address a window-dragging bug that affected text selection, introduced in the previous version. The fix refines gesture thresholds to differentiate between intentional window movements and text selection without removing the drag-to-move feature. This update is part of a rapid release schedule, with six updates occurring within a month, and has already seen significant downloads, particularly for Windows x64. Zen Browser continues to build on Firefox 153.0.3, offering additional features like color customization and enhanced routing for external links, while maintaining a focus on user feedback for improvements

Zen Browser 1.21.12b Hotfix Fixes Window Dragging and Text Selection Bug

Zen Browser pushed version 1.21.12b as a targeted hotfix to resolve a window-dragging conflict introduced two days prior. The previous build allowed users to move browser windows by dragging empty space on pages, but it accidentally intercepted text selection gestures near the top of documents. The team refined the gesture thresholds to distinguish between intentional drags and text grabs without removing the feature entirely, keeping the browser built on Firefox 153.0.3. This release continues Zen's rapid six-release cadence this month, with Windows x64 already claiming over 12,000 downloads since launch.
