Government websites don't care at all about support, most of them were made 15-20 years ago and haven't been updated at all
Well, those will work in Firefox just fine...
lol, I would never ever think that. government sites are just the worst fucking feverish web nightmare that exists, at least here where I live.
it's like they deliberately choose people for this kind of work whom never seen computers in their life before and think Internet is just an energy drink you buy at the gas station.
dude i work with one that just recently added support for non-internet explorer... major. government. entity. places that are the reason for the required legacy i.e. code in edge.
this government shit is based on 'lowest bidder' mentality.
I have had some luck using a user agent switcher in these cases. Might be worth a shot.
