    Genuine question: what sites do you run into where Firefox doesn’t work? The only thing I can think of is Jellyfin

      Thingiverse doesn’t work for me. Possibly due to several layers of ad/script blockers I have running but most sites don’t have issues. Netflix and Hulu were screwy as well when I used them.

      Mh? We’re using jellyfin in Firefox all the time in our household. Or do you mean for specific codecs?

        Have not validated recently but the initial setup would not start in Firefox. The page would load but it would not be the “setup your first user” page. Had to use chrome to setup the admin account. YMMV.

      Absolutely loads, honestly.

      You’ll just be trying to accomplish some random task like book a restaurant table, and the form will be inexplicably broken.

      Most recent site I experienced this on is my national mail carrier where I’m trying to track a package and on Firefox their AI chatboy assistant goes crazy and covers the whole page blocking any interaction.

      This browser monopoly has us back in the bad old days of “works only on Internet Explorer”

      The most annoying one is paying with iDeal

      That “dutch” payment system breaks on FireFox, there are others but they aren’t significant I do semi regularly run into a issue though (mostly mobile) and the switching to brave fixes that.

      I use brave as little as possible, but it’s needed sometimes

        As someone who uses iDEAL with Firefox all the time, I have never had it break. You might need to check whether there isn’t an extension that causes issues or looking into disabling Enhanced privacy mode for iDEAL.

          Not sure what bank you’re with, but perhaps it’s only a issue with my bank. On mobile it doesn’t open the banking app when it should when I use FireFox

            I recognize that issue. Firefox doesn’t forward to an app by default, prompting you instead. However, they often immediately forward you to the play store instead when it does not work immediately (not letting you accept the prompt).

            Settings > (Advanced) > Open Links in App (set to always), would make it work (at the cost of every other website also doing so…)
