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

Makes sense. I need to get off my ass and upstream my patches to LW that lets you change settings, because it sounds like Firedragon could also benefit from that. If you are interested, (and are on arch - the worst part about LW is that build scripts for every single distro have to be maintained, someone was trying to work on that last I talked to the devs but I guess it isn't done yet) here is a binary and PKGBUILD to see it.

lol. I personally use librewolf, but feel that my patches for settings need to be merged before I can even think about recommending it to someone who currently uses chrome (and they currently aren't merged only because I have been lazy, sorry). I don't know anything about iridium, how up-to-date is that? I know palemoon is based on an ancient ESR which I don't think is a good idea.
