in IRC about <https://wiki.freebsd.org/NPAPI>:

Removal of NPAPI plugin support in Firefox 85
<https://groups.google.com/g/mozilla.dev.platform/c/NsdReYslBU4/m/b9FwjVAbBAAJ>;

Java Plugin is Removed from JDK 8u for Linux, Solaris, and MacOS Platforms
<https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/8u271-relnotes.html#JDK-8240210>;

related <https://nspluginwrapper.org/>; does not respond.
