Firefox feedback: compatibility problems getting worse over time

kevwil — Thu, 02 Jan 2025 01:06:56 GMT

In the last year I've noticed more and more websites not working in Firefox. I try to not use Chromium-based browsers, so I have to turn to Safari with no privacy/tracking extensions installed and that usually works.

Not a technical suggestion, but just ... please work on compatibility however possible. I don't enjoy using Safari and I refuse to use Chromium-based browsers whenever possible. I'd like to keep using Firefox but it's getting more and more difficult. I hope this reaches someone in the right position to actually be able to do something about it.

It's been getting frustratingly worse on my end too. In 2024 and now 2025 I have noticed firefox not working on many websites. I used to love firefox because of the fact that it was more light weight and if I wanted to I could add custom plugins to do things for work or augment my experience that I just couldn't on Chrome or Edge.

I really hope Mozilla gets it figured out. I've been using Firefox for at least 10 years now and I'd prefer not to switch but i constantly find myself opening up a Chrome or Edge tab to load pages and videos. It's a bummer to say the least.

I also am experiencing this on more and more outward facing business storefronts, such as healthcare institutions and payroll providers. A broad spectrum, but if it is a business' portal, it is becoming impossible to login properly, even after disabling all extensions. I believe it has to do something with Captcha/ReCaptcha, but that is a fairly uneducated guess.

I still use Firefox as my daily driver, and have since 2005. I am "spoiled" by many conveniences of FF that I have become accustomed to. This is why I keep using it. Please help me, so I can continue to spread the word and install FF on nearly every PC I help people with. I cannot keep recommending it if it is problematic like this, it makes things too complicated.

Firefox is going to become obsolete many booking sites don't work I have to use Edge or Chrome to make orders or book things. If it carries on I'll drop Firefox after a lot of years, each update they do makes it worse!
