Can I opt out of beta with Firefox Developer Edition?
I'm using Firefox Developer Edition for its ability to allow my chosen extensions to work. However it updates constantly and I don't want to always be in beta. Is there a way to switch to stable releases or revert to a chosen update and stay there (for a while anyways) ?

Firefox Developer Edition is an alpha development version that is supposed to update almost every day.
Firefox Release is the stable version. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/

There are four main development channels.
Release (currently 51.0.1) < Beta (b#) < Aurora (a2) < Nightly (a1)
Aurora (aka developers edition) and Nightly get checkins almost everyday so they get a update each of those days. Sometimes this can cause issues until fixed, finished or reverted.
Beta channel builds gets say six to twelve builds though 51.0 had fourteen.
