I’ll be emailing the site admin… or some contact at the site, but, is there anything else that can be done to try to put pressure on these websites that tell me “you’re not getting the best experience… download Chrome.”?

I know Firefox has a “Report a broken site” feature, but, the site isn’t technically broken. They’re just telling me to switch browsers.

    I am actually surprised like why? What is so special about Chrome vs Firefox that your website will not work in either?

    Can someone who is a Front end developer explain this to me? Any 0.001% case where this has to be done?

      I’m not a FE dev but I know some JS basics. I imagine the site uses some blink (the chromium engine) specific features or css.

      Sometimes i also think it’s for tracking reasons and they deliberately discourage other browsers
