    That’s fair. Firefox hasn’t sprung up too many issues for me either. But it does occur and occasionally adds some annoyance if it’s a site you need. For me especially Firefox on IPhone is annoying to work with at times. Which is why I have other browsers on my phone as well. But for desktop, generally works fine.

      I honestly don’t think I found a website that doesn’t work in Firefox for years. But I agree that it can be really annoying, I hope more people adopt Firefox (or it’s engine at least).

      As for your iPhone issue: Well Apple doesn’t really allow any other browsers on iOS, AFAIK it’s all just Safari under the hood with a skin on top.

        I hope people do too. I am a Waterfox lover myself and it works great for the most part.

        And huh, interesting. Good to know. Might just be a safari issue then. Idk. I for some reason thought that had changed, but could be wrong.

        That’s interesting to know. Maybe that’s why add-ons don’t work in Firefox iOS or iPad OS.

      It’s funny that you say that, because all browsers on the iPhone are just rebranded Safari, due to Apple’s policies. So the web engine is just the same as Safari, or iOS Chrome or Opera or whatever. Literally the only platform where Firefox can’t have compatibility issues because it’s just a re-skinned Safari.
