A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

If this shit is left unchecked, mainstream websites will stop working with open web browsers like Firefox.

It's not like we're far away from that now. While most sites work with Firefox, I still have to use Edge on a regular basis because some sites just don't work on Firefox, and somehow we've reached a point where Edge is the lesser evil because the other choice is Chrome. And I recently discovered a website that won't work on Firefox or Edge, and as it wasn't a website that I had a choice about using (needed to use it to respond to a letter from a government body), there was no choice but to install Chrome.
