Firefox hasn't supported Java in quite awhile now (since Firefox 52), along with all other NPAPI plugins other than Flash, which is still supported.

Why do Java, Silverlight, Adobe Acrobat and other plugins no longer work? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/npapi-plugins

Current Firefox releases require a Java Web Start (JNLP) file to launch Java applets in a standalone window. You can no longer embed Java on a web page.

So this implies that to view archaic (probably no longer maintained) websites with java applets embedded, I need to download version 52. But I need the current version as well (I'm not giving up the good stuff). Is this correct?
