    I just use edge/chrome for twitch.tv… It’s no longer compatible with Firefox for some reason… :(

    Edit: twitch does work, I meant the login doesn’t. Sorry I was too sleepy to word it correctly. After pressing login even though user and password are correct I get an error message saying my browser is not compatible.

      What happens if you switch the user agent header? Most of these sites that don’t work with Firefox actually do work but are deliberately designing them not to function with Firefox.

      For example, I got Bing AI to work by switching it to mimic Edge.

      Twitch absolutely works with Firefox. I don’t think I’ve accessed twitch from any browser other than Firefox now that I think about it.

        Maybe I that was a wrong choice of words on my end.

        Twitch doesn’t let me login. I can watch still. But if I want to earn drops or something I can’t, because I can’t login. It says my browser is incompatible.

      Huh? This is news to me.

      I don’t use Twitch much but I just hopped on and it worked perfectly fine. What’s not supposed to work?

        Yeah, that’s my bad. I absolutely didn’t word that right. I was half asleep already ahaha

        Twitch does work, but I can’t login. It says my browser is incompatible. The only reason I watch twitch is for twitch drops (I’m not really into live streams tbh) so that defeats the whole purpose.

        I will try doing like someone else said and “spoof” my browser version and such. That would be great if it worked.
