I wish it was for me, but Chrome is necessary for some work I do.
Edit: very weird I get so many downvotes because I need to use a specific browser. Get out more, please.
27 23 ReplyEdit: ...
Yeah, I get "Google bad", and agree, and am 100% on the Firefox train, but downvoting people for not using FF is kinda stinky.
15 5 ReplySo use Chrome for that work, and Firefox plus an adblocker for everything else.
9 0 ReplyMy adblocker works in Chrome at the moment so will see.

Have you tried to spoof the user agent ?
6 0 ReplyI don't know what that is
2 1 ReplyIt's a neat trick that's been around for ages. Your browser presents a string of text to the website to identify itself. "Hi! I'm Chrome_ver_whatever."
You can easily change it, make your browser lie to the website.
Here's the extension for Chrome and Edge:

I'm sure Firefox has the same.

I've tried switching so many times, most recently yesterday. Every time something just doesnt work or is missing. Yesterday it was stremios web client that refused to show the video that I was simultaneously watching in chrome.
And the fact that Firefox doesnt do tab groups. Such a convenient feature for me, and I couldnt find an extension that did the job. Maybe some of you can help?
8 17 ReplyAbsolutely agree on the tab groups. I don't get how this is not implemented yet, it's a basic feature with great impact to usability.
6 0 ReplyFirefox actually had tab groups way back, but Mozilla, in their infinite wisdom, removed it because apparently their main mission now is to antagonize all their loyal power users.

This is definitely a feature that needs to be an addon rather than in core Firefox, as it could easily interfere with users who organise tabs in different ways (e.g. Tree tabs)
3 0 ReplyRight now there's no built in options and it could just be deactivated.
Also the add ins I've seen still lack chrome's feature of auto grouping. They just allow me to manually group.

If you refresh it generally works. I've had zero issues with it. Not sure though
5 0 ReplyNo amount of refreshing or clearing cookies and cache has helped so far. It just says "video not supported" no matter which file I try to play.
1 0 ReplyWhat are you trying to play ? Probably should contact mods. Would be good for them to know. Others will have similar problems.
Do you have add one ? I need to turn off dark mode for some sites as it breaks it. Those are the only issues I've had.
1 0 ReplyIt is probably a very specific issue, since I can't find anyone else that has it, at least not doing the usual google-fu.
When using the Stremio web client, firefox refuses to play anything I throw at it, whereas everything plays fine in the chromium browsers I've tried.
No amount of turning extensions off or clearing cache or cookies or refreshing has fixed it so far.
1 0 ReplyFire through the link and maybe folk can check it out. I know GeForce now doesn't work on Firefox and steam doesn't play nice.
