I held off on Windows 10 for as long as I could until Adobe, and therefore my job, required it. Now this nonsense. I hope this isn't the start of them joining on the web DRM bandwagon.

The NHS' virtual appointment service in the UK doesn't support Firefox either, only Chrome, Safari and Edge. The dark days of "please view this website in Internet Explorer 6" are creeping closer to the present again. I hate the modern internet.

Websites supporting safari but not firefox really grinds my gears.If safari can run it, there's no way Firefox can't run it too.

Except the supported browsers aren't a broken, dysfunctional mess on a technical level.

[-] kbity@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Well, the ones based on Chromium aren't, anyway. I've heard some major criticisms of Safari in the last few years, for what that's worth.

True. Safari's only there as a function of Apple's market mobile prevalence.
