eli5 Why do some websites work on specific browsers? For example Chrome and not Firefox.
In: 6
I think the other comments have gone over the why, but the chromium engine is what is used when testing Web site functionality.
Almost all, except Firefox and may be a few others based on Firefox, use the chromium engine
Microsoft edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Vivaldi, brave etc
Internet Explorer is gone as a browser now, but for sites that require it you can run a compatibility mode in Microsoft edge called IE mode
