Then you missed my link (saying "Install an old version of Firefox") to Mozilla's official download server: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/ There you can find all Firefox versions ever released for all OSes.

By the way, I'm also one of those developers, and I am also sad about that decision. But that discussion is out of the scope of this forum.
