Websites dropping Firefox as a useable browser?!?

Is this something to be concerned about with future sites, or is this an unfortunate, isolated incident? One of my local utility companies is not going to be supporting the use of Firefox on their website any longer. Has anyone else seen anything like this on other sites, or has this been brought up elsewhere? Frankly I find it outrageous and is forcing me and others to use Chromium based browsers (aside from Safari which I don't use).

  • I emailed the company asking for an explanation, and I'm awaiting a reply.

I would share the URL for others to email and help press the company on the issue, but wasn't sure of the guidelines of the forum or if that was appropriate. I'm just irritated and venting sorry =/

@jonzn4SUSE it wasn't a non-issue, it was a question that I was asking the community, and the first I ever actually posted in the community forums. Thanks for the prompt and polite response, perhaps the Reddit forums are more informative and helpful as it's clearly the first I've seen and don't understand the context of "Big corp has made a decision" and was looking for something a little more insightful than being told to simply mark my question as resolved by someone that provided no context to my inquiry But yes, you have a nice day as well, I'll wait for others to respond for more insight, I have faith that the Mozilla community is a bit more informative and polite than that, best wishes.

Not the first and won't be the last. Just use whatever tool gets the job done and move on. Big corp has made a decision... end of story. Mark this non issue as resolved and have a nice day.

Yeah, that jonzn jerk gave a similar wrong and unhelpful a-hole response to my question too, he really needs to be permanently banned from this site. Seems like he hates Firefox and is working for Chrome or something to actively suppress Firefox. Since your question has the same black mark "Not A Firefox Problem" tag that my question is saddled with (incorrectly in my case), I'm guessing he's the idiot who added it.

I actually had a similar thing years ago with Global TV I think it was here in Canada, where instead of providing episodes in video form it would check what browser we were using and if it was Firefox would not provide the content being asked for. Seems ALARMINGLY anti-Firefox and for no good reason, just provide the video and let us worry about compatibility. Similarly, Facebook adding their stupid End-To-End-Encryption to chats they simultaneously then block video and audio calls, as if this useless unnecessary bloat security protocal can't be handled by Firefox during calls. Someone actually employed by Firefox/Mozilla should take note of the discrimination and do something about it.

In both cases the BEST response would be for Mozilla to push these other sites to stop having a prejudice against Firefox. Mozilla should have more influence than us mere individuals, Mozilla may achieve change. In your case, you should probably at least contact them to at least alert them that this move is not acceptable to you, maybe hear some reason why they care, websites shouldn't care what browser we use as long as our browsers follow standards (which Chrome doesn't, yet they show favouritism towards it for being popular)
