changes useragent to Chrome. Everything works perfectly on the site
Hmm. Interesting.
This is actually exactly how user agents evolved.
Chrome pretends to be safari.
IE pretends to be Netscape.
Safari pretends to be Firefox.
All popular browsers pretend to be at least one other browser for compatibility.

So it’s kind of like back in the Netscape days.
Men are men, women are men, boys are men, and little girls are FBI agents.
Stroking intensifies
Ew......
Well, he was definitely stroking something.
My SO just had something similar pop up yesterday. She was running into weird errors on her Chromebook, so I had her change her user agent to Chrome on Windows. Everything magically worked. Hmm…
Which proves that M$ Teams definitely isn't heaven, because some things actually don't work with Firefox, as I recall.
Last time I tried to log in it said something about cookies and I had to use chrome.
that's your own fault for using teams though
also they don't count since Microsoft changes all links to force open in Edge and there's nothing you can do about it.
$ cat firefox.exe > edge.exe doesn't work?
enoent
Not like I had a choice
You will use your corporate vendor lock-in garbage software and you will LIKE IT! THATS AN ORDER!!
I don't really care what happens on my work machine tbh. I'll use whatever they set to default.
Microsoft changes all links to force open in Edge
Or, that doesn't work in Firefox either.
Calls don't work.
I does video meetings perfectly well. But not calls. And if you never used Teams, just try to guess the difference.
Guess I’m continuing to use Firefox in hell then

Google Adsense has a further reach that you think

The image embed doesn't work. Lemmy supports embedding media only if HTTPS is used. This website is HTTP.
I already fixed it, but I didn't know that! That's really cool!
You can also embed images inside links, by the way (click the button):
[](https://getfirefox.com)
Also if say you have image/animation/audio/video link without extension (e.g.: .jpg), you can fool Lemmy using a fragment identifier at the end of URL #.jpg which would usually be used to jump to the fragment id in document. e.g.: https://example.org/image#.jpg
Wowzers that's fancy, I'll have to save that for the future
Now I'm wondering if someone in bad faith could link an tracking image and just rip ip addressees in the background
I guess it depends on if lemmy clients query the link to fetch fetch images or just grab a cached copy of the image from the lemmy instance
Images in comments don't get cached, so absolutely yes. But I mean, public IP + User Agent is like minimum of information anyway. Any website you visit gets it.
it's not just lemmy; HTTPS websites aren't allowed to serve HTTP content

Sorry, my bad. And thanks for the info.
No worries, I find the intricacies of protocols like this super interesting 😊

Hell runs on Linux so it never freezes.
It all makes so much sense now haha!
At least God isn't a crypto bro
Hell only supports IE. You hang out in limbo with all the cool kids.
If Firefox could run full screen video without crashing every fucking time ... that'd be great
I don't seem to have any problem with Firefox videos, maybe it's on your end
That's absolutely part of it. I have an old phone, but Chrome has been flawless on every phone I've had including this one.
