Our .deb package is now available for Developer Edition and Beta builds, alongside our Nightly package for Debian-based Linux distributions.

Developer edition is essentially Firefox beta, with some tweaks that developers may prefer by default, and some experimental dev features.

As I understand it, it aligns with beta, but is an early beta, meaning that while it shares its codebase, it may get access to some feature rollouts (that are gated by edition) slightly earlier than true Firefox Beta.

Oh so there is more, thanks for explaining!
The landing page mostly talks about webpage inspecting features that are also in the normal Firefox nowadays, so I was a bit confused.
