... Is it?
I genuinely haven't encountered anything broken using it, short of Youtube. And that's less Firefox and more all the extensions trying to make it usable, I think. There are a couple of bits of functionality missing, but in terms of sites working, it seems perfectly fine.
I've also encountered a few issues with Firefox on mobile, but not enough to stop using it as my daily driver.
I don't really blame Firefox though, I'd guess that their implementation is closer to the spec than Chrome's but that companies are cheaping out on testing in multiple browsers.
The search function of the Walmart site was broken for a year or two on mobile but it seems it's been fixed. A few webpages I needed for school explicitly weren't supported in non-chromium browers.
Sonys website breaks for me
Square enix bitches every fucking time
Some other niche sites I use also break in weird and violent ways sometimes
All tested with all add-ons disabled to see if that fixed them, all failed
Lol, downvote me all you want you fucking weridos, doesn't change the facts
Huh. I've used Sony's site recently and I just opened it to see if I noticed anything broken but it seems fine. Of course somebody not seeing a bug doesn't mean the bug doesn't exist, it's not that I don't believe you. All I'm saying is I've been primarily on Firefox for a while now and that hasn't been my experience.
