Is there a reason why? Less funding? Web devs don’t make the pages Firefox friendly? Since the user base is smaller, they just don’t care?

Don’t you think that it may be because Firefox is pretty much the only browser using a different engine that Chromium? There are literally two major browser engines, and you’re developing for one them. Ofc everything else will act like Chromium, because they are Chromium for the most part.

That’s all really nice. But the fact is, we use what works. It’s a pragmatic decision. They’re are so few Firefox users and on the end issues are not very common.

The number of Edge users is only a few % more, do you skip that too? Just check Chrome and Safari and call it a day?

As someone that uses only Firefox and knows others who do, this really surprises me. If a website is broken on Firefox then it’s shitty webdev work and I’ll find another store.

Everything works fine in edge. Only Firefox has issues.

Users don’t care why that is. If their app doesn’t work they won’t use this niche browser that very few people use.
