Why is a website restricted to certain browsers? This isn't 2005.

We are at this stage again. First „Works only with IE6“, now „Works only with Chromium and WebKit“.

Right? It's very simple. If the site doesn't work I close it and never look back.

Individual boycotts might do nothing and the situation becomes worse over time because of network and monopolistic effects. There might be an end to the open internet, requiring a specific browser to visit crucial websites. Or you could get DMCA'd if you use an ad blocker or plugin to alter the function of a website.
