Works fine in firefox for me.

Why do you blame Firefox over the website? Isn't it more likely that the website creator did something that isn't standards compliant?

When this happens and people switch to Chrome, there's less money/resources for Firefox to continue on and we just keep pushing farther toward a world where developers only need to focus on Chrome. It's a cycle that ends with Google controlling all access to the internet.

How do you know it's a Firefox problem? Maybe the site relies on some Chromium specific quirk?

Worked fine for me in firefox. Not to diminish your issues, they are real issues but they arent universal.

As a user it doesn't make any difference to me WHY it doesn't work. If it works on one browser and doesn't work on another then I am having a better time with the browser it works on.

Please try to enjoy all browsers equally, and not show preference for any over the others.

Works great in Firefox for me.

I don't really know what to tell you, I have tried several times and every time it just looks like this.

Works on Chrome first time.

this attitude is what makes the problem: it encourages developers to treat a single implementation as the standard.

most likely a browser plugin then, assuming you've checked the console for errors?

The only plugins I use (as you can see in that screenshot) are Bitwarden and uBlock Origin. Disabling uBlock had no effect. I'd be shocked it Bitwarden were causing it.

I checked the console for errors. There were two warning about deprecated API usage and nothing else.

Often that's the case but I'm happy to report that this site works flawlessly in my Firefox.

I needed to disable the Enhanced Tracking Protection button (under the shield by the https lock icon in the URL bar) to get it to work, but otherwise firefox works fine for me on Linux with this site.

I dont know what to tell you either.

I hate "It works for me" as the end of troubleshooting.

But whether you can replicate the issue on other systems is valid diagnostic information.

It could legitimately still be a firefox bug, one that relates to your system in particular. But I have no way to tell from over here.
