Sorry for being off-topic, but—yes there is! 

On the Firefox side there's 78 ESR. It's a bit outdated now, but a lot better than \
ESR 52.9. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/78.0esr/releasenotes/

And then if you don't mind jumping ship, there's Chromium Legacy: \
https://github.com/blueboxd/chromium-legacy (I recommend installing via a PrefPane I \
created, so you'll receive automatic updates: \
https://github.com/blueboxd/chromium-legacy/discussions/25). This browser is fully \
up-to-date with mainline Chrome.
