What is Firefox supposed to do?

[Skhilled]

Firefox now collects data for advertisers. It's not actually scary, but there is a bigger problem.

Got that turned off now. Might even think about switching my default browser.

Been playing with LibreWolf lately...

I use Brave and have done for quite some time

I like Brave but for some reason it stopped working on my PC and I can't get it worked again, even after uninstalling and reinstalling.

I also, love how you can group tabs with Vivaldi. I wish other browsers could do that.

I've now got ROM games in the Arcade on my site and Firefox wont play them for some reason, even when I uninstall and start from scratch, Chrome and Brave work fine. Firefox is now removed from my PC

Installed the Librewolf and they don't play on that either

I've now found Arc (https://arc.net/downloaded) installed and the games work, it's a bit odd having the bookmarks to the left side bar but seems to be OK

[Skhilled]

I've never heard of it...

EDIT: Maybe it was a browser extension that was causing the arcade not to play?

It was a new install of FF so no extensions added, not unless it comes with some preinstalled.

Yeah, it is something on your end as I've played a ROM game on your site using FF and it worked for me. It is probably a FF setting, maybe?   Or maybe your firewall or Antivirus?
