Nah, Firefox with UserAgent Switcher for work.

For me it's Chrome for work, because we're not allowed to install anything on our machines :(

If they're not allowed to install their own software, they probably aren't allowed to use USB drives

[-] yggdar@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

You're absolutely right! USB storage devices are blocked and we don't have the right to execute arbitrary executables anyway. It is a pretty secure environment.

Apologies, I am the one who makes those decisions. So I give firefox to those who will take it and no matter what I make sure Google isn't their default search engine.

I manage a team of about 30 people in IT. Your job is not valued enough, and I know the importance of what you do. Thank you for your work!
