Imagine using Chrome in 2024.
I have found a lot of websites over the last few months acting up if I'm using Firefox.
I have chrome for work and if I switch they work flawlessly. It's small things like menus not expanding or elements not loading.
There's a push on unifying browsers.
I've been Firefox and duckduckgo for years and it's getting a bit annoying. Obviously the trade off is worth it I do not want the big tech products but finding good alternatives is getting hard.
DDG has gone downhill in recent years.
Everyone says “problems with websites in Firefox!”
Nobody has examples
I couldn't submit a support ticket for id.me (the IRS' stupid commercial partner for Identity verification) when using Firefox, the submit button literally did not work. Worked fine when switching to edge (blegh).
I never had a problem verifying on Firefox a few years back so maybe it's a more recent bug?
I can’t test that but that's the closest thing to proof so far!
