ungoogled-chromium-android VS web-bugs

From the project head wchen342: "I won't be able to update the versions for some time. If possible please use one of the browsers listed here in the meantime." https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-android/issues/123

It hasn't been updated in more than a year

Official Bromite and the original Ungoogled Chromium for Android are both no longer maintained: - https://github.com/bromite/bromite - https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-android

Here is the patch Ungoogled uses (from Bromite), but it is 13 versions outdated: https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-android/blob/master/patches/Bromite/Add-bookmark-import-export-actions.patch

First off, Ungoogled Chromium is not being actively maintained so it's a security risk.

Ungoogled Chromium is no longer maintained the Dev recommends using something else.

Add Ungoogled Chromium

Kiwi Browser and Ungoogled Chromium for Android support chrome extensions on mobile. I'm pretty sure Samsung Browser does as well? If not try those.

Browser: It might sound surprising but this is the easiest part. If you're using Chrome, install Bromite or Ungoogled Chromium. If you're using Firefox, install Mull. There are some simpler browsers, you can test them out if you want. For syncing bookmarks, use xBrowserSync.

The thread is very long, here is the relevant comment:

Microsoft Teams (which I don't think many people use voluntarily) in particular breaks in stupid ways - and then in others if you spoof your user agent.

a link to the video would help with troubleshooting, seems like another case of "this site or this particular feature doesn't support firefox" otherwise report to https://webcompat.com/

Have any of you faced this? If the website is made to open only in chromium-based browsers, I am planning to report to Webcompat. But before that, I thought I would make sure from others. Any experience or quick fix would be appreciated.

Teams was a classic hellhole for me when I was using Linux. Nowadays it lets you in but Firefox genuinely doesn't support all of the features the Teams site uses. This means certain features are made unavailable to Firefox users. Forcing the user agent makes some of these partially work but they are also still broken so Mozilla doesn't want to enable a user agent override by default and Microsoft doesn't want to enable a feature that only half works.

This GitHub WebCompat issue serves as a good example history https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/77892

having recently looked at a firefox performance regression for filing a bugreport, tooling that tracks performance (quite publicly) sees attention, easy upload to share tracing profiles also helps: https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/testing/perfdocs/ind...

Their dedicated blog keeps you posted if firefox perf is your interest https://blog.mozilla.org/performance/

If you have a particular website you notice chromium being significantly faster with, for an easy report, there's https://webcompat.com/ - though bugzilla is better than it seems when coming from github issues
