Currently a university student, and somewhat frequently, I see Firefox installed on people’s laptops but they also have Chrome installed and are using Chrome, or Edge, or Safari. Rarely do I see Firefox actually being used but I see it installed frequently. Does anyone have a clue as to why they have it installed?
Yea I know Chromium monopoly and open source browser and whatnot but the average Andy does not know what any of that is.
Did you even read my comment. Last paragraph, just switch out Chrome for Firefox or any other browser. Your welcome.
Show me a website that only works on Firefox, because I doubt there are any.
I am more or less referring to the situation (that is rare in both directions, i could not even name a site that does not work on firefox from the top of my head) when there are problems with the site that are not even browser specific, clearing cache and reloading, clearing cookies can also resolve that but most of the time opening the content in another browser is faster and easier, especially for non tech savvy users.
Logmein gotomeeting, ms teams, skype. The former used to work with just a useragent change, then one day it didn’t anymore. The other two works partially, they load and chat works (or at least it did last time I tried), but the actual important feature of them, group voice calls, does not work.
There’s support for multiple profiles, where is you create one, that looks like a freshly installed user.
I know, that feature is not too visible to the user…
But then, if they just need another browser for the rare occasion, why don’t they just choose edge? People don’t even unpin it from the taskbar, so it’s just a click away
