What sites are people visiting? I've used Firefox for over a decade and yet have to run into any kind of issue like this.


I've been using Firefox as my main browser for a long time and over the past couple of years I noticed an uptick in websites that wouldn't work lest I used Chromium. For instance last week I had to use a crappy HSBC website that wouldn't let me login in Firefox (it would just hang) while it worked in Chromium.

It's still very minor and I can't even come up with a 2nd example off the top of my head but it does definitely happen from time to time.

If anything these few cases only makes me value Firefox even more, I don't want to enable the Chrome monopoly.


Ebay works on and off for me. I often have to resort to Safari


What kind of problems are these? I've never used anything but Firefox on Ebay.


"Unsupported browser" messages when attempting to login on both desktop firefox and mobile firefox.
