I never used Chrome. happy user of Firefox since it's conception.

I do most browsing on Firefox, but there are some web developers who seem to totally ignore anything but Chrome. Like I sometimes think a site is broken until I try it in Chrome. Anyone else have this issue and have a solution other than using Chrome?

Either spoof the user agent, or... Edge.

I have the same problem, and every Firefox user who claims otherwise it’s just lying. I use brave browser for these instances.
