> sorry our site is better view with Google IE4... ehm Google Chrome

FWIW this is usually due to folks doing performance work in only one browser or not really testing well and slapping that label on after the fact.

Or stuff like Hangouts and Allo where they use nonstandard features.

The major things Firefox doesn't support that Chrome does are U2F (it does support it now, but flipped off, will flip on soon I think) and web components (support should be available next year I guess; this kinda stalled because of lots of spec churn and Google implementing an earlier incompatible spec early or something.)




I've been using a U2F plugin that works everywhere except google, which insists that you cannot possibly have U2F on firefox.
