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.

Every now and then a website doesn't work on Firefox.

For me, my default browser is LibreWolf with several privacy hardening extensions, but if I do come across a website that fails, my usual route goes LibreWolf > Firefox > Ungoogled Chromium

If it doesn't work beyond that then I just won't use the website.

I have that problem too but I find using a Chromium-based browser is the solution. I doubt you actually need to use Chrome for these websites you're having problems with.

i mostly use a vivaldi or opera portable for those. unzip, run, use the temperamental site, close, delete directory. it's not very often that i have to do this.

but for a couple of pesky sites i do frequent a bit more often, i keep their portable browsers to reuse and have them configured (including addons) specifically for them.
