    The feds should mandate that all websites must be accessible by Firefox. Plus, they should completely switch to Firefox internally.

      How would you define “accessible”? The web app I’m working on works in Firefox, but a few text labels are misaligned with their input controls due to slight CSS deviation from Chromium. It’s those things that are most of the problems for supporting both browsers, functionality-wise they’re very close (except newer features that Firefox hasn’t implemented yet or Google-specific features like WebUSB).

        I thought it was funny when cockpit a web interface for Linux servers said my Firefox browser was out of date. It locked me out for security reasons until I accessed it with an updated version of Firefox. I was using archlinux and ran updates that morning.

        It wasn’t that inconvenient I just SSH into my server for whatever I was doing and they fixed it in about a week.
