Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Some websites don't work with Firefox. That's why I use Brave as a secondary browser.

I’ve been using FF for over 15 years at this point and I have never, not even once, ran into any issues with any site that I went to. Now, is the website you are talking about shareable by you? I don’t want it if it’s a bank or something that could some how be linked to you. I just really really want to see a website that doesn’t work on FF. I’m not trying to come off as a dick or anything, I am genuinely interested to see what it looks like and how it behaves.

I'm in school right now and have to use the Cengage website. There are lab modules that don't work with Firefox.

Soon as I login, I cant do anything, always some invisible pop-up or something trying to load endlessly while I see my bill below, but cant click anything. Even got a notice the other day that my browser is not supported.

I have a net metering credit that covers my bill, so not a real issue for me, but still frustrating.

Not sure if it's still the case and replicateable without an account. But on enscape3d.com you can't submit tickets from FF for example

Then these websites can go get fucked. I'm not using them, and when its my bank i walk my ass to my bank and cancel my bank account there.

If you require chromium, you make people use a less secure browser because your company sucks Google dong. Fuck that, fuck them fuck it all.

if its brave devs vs loan sharks I'd have to go with the loan sharks
