What really chaps my ass is when they don't bother to tell you. It always happens when I'm filling out a form and find out that the submit button just doesn't do anything. Then I have to go back through chrome just to fill out the same form a second time.
I believe that this is illegal.
There's no law saying you need to support multiple platforms. There are some windows apps that don't exist on macos for example. It just sucks.
Nope. Afaik, there is still no legal precedent set that you must make your publicly available website usable on more than one browser suite. Which is ludicrous, because Google has quietly been trying to make Chrome the only option.
You know the answer b
The answer to most questions is money.
Ads = money
Chrome implements features that aren't standards track into their browser, and lazy/oblivious devs use these features to build their products - only to realize wayyy too late it won't work in Safari/Firefox because it uses APIs that are chrome only
Firefox still has no month or week inputs. These things have been standardized 10 years ago and implemented in Chrome as of version 20.
Probably the reason it was never implemented is that it's barely an inconvenience. The input just fallback into a text field.
The really irritating part is that tools like Playwright let you end-to-end test your product across the big three (Chromium, Firefox and Webkit). Which, most of the time, means these products that specify "Chrome only" simply aren't E2E testing with modern tools.
The only end-to-end happening in those scenarios is the end-to-end pipeline of "shit in, shit out".
I wonder if it would work if you spoofed your user agent.
it almost always does, lol
Find the user agent of the most recent chrome release and change your user agent in about:config
Don't change it browser-wide because stats trackers will think that Firefox's market share is going down. Use a user agent switching extension and change it only for the sites that need it.
Google pays them...
cheap. easy to admin.
64.7% of all web traffic was from Google Chrome in 12/23. Companies like it because you can develop for one browser and support most people.
If they develop for only Firefix it will work with all browsers because Firefox is standards compatible.
Because it's secure
