As always, I just added Firefox 54 to Browserling. You can try this new version at this URL without installing or updating it:

I've a bunch of VMs available for free testing. If there are too many people wanting to try it, then you'll have to wait in a queue for a few minutes.

https://www.browserling.com/#pricing says “Internet Explorer 9 only”, “Windows Vista only” — must be out of date?

That's what free users get. They better upgrade to developer plans and unlock all IEs and all platforms.

Any plans now that Vista and IE9 are no longer supported? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/22882/windows-vista...

Yup, I'll be changing the default platform for free plans. I'm already working on that. Free users will be able to use IE11. Like this:

I'm guessing that you can't test local sites with this tool? If so that'd be really cool!

You can! https://www.browserling.com/local-testing

"As part of the roll-out, e10s-multi is only enabled for 80% of the Release population, so we can make sure we didn’t introduce new crashes."

You can check in about:support

If you have any add-on installed you will probably read there:

  Multiprocess Windows 	0/1 (Disabled by add-ons)

I have five addons installed (uMatrix, Decentraleyes, vimFx, etc.), and none of them block multiprocess. If you read something like this in your about:support, you better start shopping for multiprocess-compatible alternatives (e.g. I replaced Vimperator with vimFx because Vimperator's architecture and scope is fundamentally incompatible with multiprocess from what I've heard).
