shrugs in Firefox
Careful, there are some edgy people out there who don’t want to use more than one browser because Firefox doesn’t work with their cameras /s
Meanwhile, I’ll still be using Firefox too
Who needs to give their browser access to their camera?
People who have to use their browser for telehealth and virtual teller banking access.
Sadly these are also things that require better security.
Yup. Firefox doesn't work for me unfortunately, so I have to maintain Chrome on at least one device for these things
Hey, member when you always had to have IE for one of "those" sites and it was basically just an awful browser everyone was forced to have like as a legal requirement or something?
Heh. IE. Then when you'd use it to download firefox it'd say "Nooooo! Wait! I'm teh Best Browser!!" Hahahahah
IE. Ded.
I use Firefox for some teleconferencing, but my therapist's software only works on chrome
Does it have to be Chrome, or just e.g. Chromium is fine?
That's a good question. I don't know that I can fully uninstall Chrome from my Tablet, only disable. Since I use it maybe a handful of times a month it isn't a big deal to just use it for the session. I don't feel the need to have another browser right now, but I appreciate you bringing that up
