Speaking about it,The only reason why there's no firefox on PowerPC 32 bits is because of the lack of node.js,this is the reason why Firefox works on i386,even on non-sse2 processors unlike the official version.
For example in windows,The last version of Firefox on non-sse2 processors, even on 7 is 48.0.2,which is too outdated to run some modern websites like Discord which simply won't work or Youtube which works but warns you that's unsupported. If you try to install something like 52esr or 102 using the offline installer,it'll prevent you from installing. If you try to bypass it by extracting it,it'll work after clicking on the EXE but it'll be unstable and might crash. This won't be apparent from the get-go,the only thing that causes the instability is by trying any heavy websites. Don't expect stability on non-sse2 processors due to memory leaks and crashing. Even the only sign before instability is the high ram usage. Wouldn't say it won't work,especially on Windows 7 which officially supports 102. On Vista and XP,this obviously won't work unless it's 52esr.
