It's their problem not mine. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [โ] BassTurd@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago (1 child) It's really seldom, but a few years back there was a government website that only worked with chrome or edge that I had to use. I had one the other night and found a work around. It's a rare occurrence, and usually I can avoid it, but sometimes I have to just suck it up, do the deed, and bail. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [โ] brsrklf@jlai.lu 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) I don't design web apps but I've heard from some that do that firefox occasionally has problems with them, because it relies a lot on caching (actually they used the term "aggressive caching", with a few extra choice words). Anyway, usually not a problem. I use edge only for work since it's the default browser and I barely do any actual browsing with it, mostly light app clients. On my own devices, it's been firefox only for years. permalink fedilink source parent [โ] sheogorath@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago Nowadays, just changing the user agent would be enough to make the site work again. permalink fedilink source parent
