Dear devs,

It's NEVER ok to lock people out of a webapp because their User-Agent doesn't match your predefined list. 😡

Especially webapps they need to manage their healthcare.

(I am in fact using one of the browsers on this list, your code just isn't able to tell.)

 Please boost for basic education.

@downey My trash company blocks me from paying my bill because I use firefox ESR, which reports a version number they don't like. They refuse to change it despite their insistence that they would "pass on this feedback to the IT team"
