    🦊 I respect proton UI and aim to improve it.

  • Highly suggest checking out Firefox-UI-Fix [1]. I use it everywhere I use Firefox, and it makes the browser usable.

    A place to report bugs on websites.

  • 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
