Switch to Firefox.

Edit: Google have now ditched WEI, but this still shows why it's important to have competition in the browser space.

@Lumpbucket Never understood why you would use chromium-based browsers aside for edge-cases where videocalling doesn't work well in Firefox. Oher than that, what's the problem with using FF?

@jfml beats me. I never switched to chrome in the first place.

@Lumpbucket @jfml

Edge cases where some dumb multinational is using some awful middleware and you have to re-login literally every page load because it's doing some obscure session management hack that only works in Chrome.

I'M LOOKING AT YOU HP.

Edit: AND LENOVO.

@andwhyisit @Lumpbucket @jfml I had to switch to Safari on the Mac for one of them for a while because login broke in Chrome, I suspect keychain shenanigans. It's working again now.
