Just figured this might be some welcome news to shout out from the crow's nest. Haven't tried it yet myself, so would love some feedback, me hearties!
Wish they had built off Firefox.
Does anyone build off Gecko/Firefox these days? Even Brave, the browser run by their old CTO/CEO, switched away to Chromium several years ago.
Honestly, it's hard to do that. Chrome's dominance means much of the internet has been designed for chrome. If you don't support the same features, people will complain that your browser is broken or sucks.
Myself, I used Firefox for the longest time before I eventually just got too annoyed with the umpteenth site not working correctly and switched to Chrome.
It's been ages since I ran into a site issue, using both desktop and mobile Firefox. Not saying it doesn't happen, but seems that issues are very few and far between these days.
Half the time when I see a thread about a site that doesn’t work in FF there’s a comment saying you can just spoof a chromium user agent and the page will work fine.
Which…. Honestly as a web dev makes me embarrassed because you should never build a site around the UA. It’s such an unreliable bit of information!
