My biggest issue is video streaming on older computers. I have an old laptop I use casually for video playing in the background, and Webkit browsers like Edge definitely load YouTube with far less stuttering. I’m still trying to find good alternatives - lately even changing the user agent doesn’t seem to make it faster.

This to me sounds like an issue with hardware video decoding not working right and it falling back to software decoding on the CPU.

there’s a portion of the internet that just doesn’t work in Firefox because the company pays only $2 million a year for developers and they can’t do it

As part of our company’s security policy, our IT admin disallows firefox to be installed in dev machine.
our engineers cannot test their work in firefox.
LOL

That’s wack.
I think our company does something similar (Chrome by default, need to ask IT for anything else), but our department just said, “we need Macs to do our work, you have no power here…” I hate macOS, but I hate stupid IT policies more.

This nonsense is part of why I prefer to work for smaller companies.

Whenever I face an issue in our company portal and I ask the IT team, their response is “Can you please try on Google Chrome?”

there’s no quality control with a test suite of browsers and versions running in virtual machines?

Due to security policy, we cannot run vm. Oh, btw, we do android development too. I guess they didn’t know android studio runs a vm. So that is ok

I’ve yet to find more than a handful of pages that have had issues, and most were fairly poorly coded to begin with

I found one the other day but I don’t even recall what it was. I almost never have any problems.
