    I work in IT so I am aware of this. Maybe you’ve not worked in enough places that just build incompatible (cr)apps?

    And sure, just go outside our locked down machine policies and install Firefox and unapproved extensions. That will do down well.

      Yeah, “most” was probably a bit hyperbolic, especially for internal websites, and I guess it’s no surprise that the sectors you mentioned would be particularly bad for it.

      The best place for my little PSA probably wasn’t in response to your post in particular.

        Sorry I’m snippy as I have personal stuff going on. You are right in so far as if you have full control of your machine which isn’t the case for the orgs I mentioned.

        We can pull FF into our dev environment so I’ve seen these annoying behaviours.

          All good; I didn’t think about your comment thoroughly enough before replying, and you had a very valid point! ^^
