Mozilla introduces a new website compatibility report tool in Firefox that Firefox users may use to report broken sites to the organization.
Nice, I assume this is to go with their recent efforts to call out monopolistic/ anticompetitive behavior?
Now on the rare occasion I need to open up Chrome, I'm going to take a moment to file a report. From memory, it's been a problem with certain google docs authentication steps, and a federal government finance site.
I'm all for this!
This is sort of what the Google reports were trying to do as well, provide feedback on shitty websites to fix their BS for the users. Ignoring some of the google-preferred solutions, a lot of the reporting metrics is valid. Make your site accessible. Don't load your site with 2megs of JS. Make sure the page loads quickly.
Time to report all those shitty government websites.
Firefox 1/2/3 - aw yes. Firefox 123 - guess complaining is useless with how the alternatives are.
Reads headline: well why the hell did they release it then?!
Reads article: ohhhhhh. That headline is trash.
Clickbait! If it said “Firefox 123 is out with a new tool for reporting broken websites to Mozilla”, most users would scroll past…
It should say "broken site" tool.
I'm sure the quotes were left of intentionally.
lmao same. I read the headline and went "lmao get it together Mozilla"
I read that as "the tool to report websites is broken."
Same, it's badly worded. It should be "tool to report broken websites".
