java applets in the firefox browser

[Alain De Vos]

I installed:
openjdk11-11.0.6+10.1_1 Java Development Kit 11
openjdk14-14+36.1 Java Development Kit 14
openjdk8-8.242.07.1 Java Development Kit 8
But it seems I don't see java applets in the firefox browser.
Did I miss something ?

Also, to adjust this angle a bit: Other browsers don't support Java applets either, Java applets are as dead as Flash nowadays (and have been for several years).

If I understand it correctly it is not considered "secure"

Plus it's just unnecessary. Java applets are "ugly", don't support any "modern" site layout (e.g. do not fit with responsive design) and there's nothing left that can't be done better with HTML5 and ECMAScript.
