There are some sites, random ones, that I have to whitelist with my adaware just to get to. Lol. But those are very few.

Back when I was super serious about trying to be a web designer and build websites for a living, I would download any browser I could find and see if I could get my sites displaying consistently across all of them. I have not tried to be that thorough since like 2010. XD;;

Did you start picking up patterns as to what kinds of designs worked across platforms/browsers and which didn't?
Assuming there were any patterns to it, lol

Sounds interesting, if there were patterns.

Not really a solid pattern at the time, if I can remember right. Everybody just HAD to have things just a few pixels off from the other browsers, and even within the same browser it could change after they released an update. You'd get a site lookin' good in most of them just to have a few rogues or a browser update make it look like your site just rolled out of bed into a windstorm. Most browsers ran on a base engine developed by either Mozilla or Chromium. Safari and Internet Explorer did their own aggressively proprietary/solitary thing, no surprise, as Apple and Microsoft have major sticks up their butt. From 2005-2014ish, the full list I tested my sites in was:

Macintosh-based: Safari (before Apple decided non-Mac users were no longer allowed to get Safari updates)
Microsoft-based: Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, Crazy Browser
Mozilla-based: Firefox, Waterfox, Firebird, Cometbird, SeaMonkey, Flock, K-Meleon, Lunascape, Pale Moon
Chrome/Chromium-based: Chrome, Opera, Maxthon, Torch
"Tri-core" (Switch between Mozilla, Chromium, & Internet Explorer engines): Avant
Unknown: NCSA Mosaic, Nuke Web Browser, Pink Web Browser ("for girls")

The one I unwillingly tested was LockDown. A college course I took demanded that tests be taken in the LockDown browser, which was a borderline virus that literally locked down your computer so you couldn't access ANYTHING other than the internet while the browser was open. This was in the early days of smartphones where only the ultra rich had them, and they didn't consider that we pesky "cheaters" might still have another laptop, desktop, or book nearby with our notes.

Everything is probably a lot more standardized now with HTML5 and CSS3 being fairly consistent and easy to work with.

I feel like my Chrome loads so slowly on some sites. Like recently I’ve been trying to load pages from Bilibili (a Chinese site for manhua) and like I get soooo many loading problems. Lol.

Granted, it is a region locked site that only allows you to read some stuff and not others. Lol

Made it to FOUR !

YAY!
My mule lost its streak like a few days ago lol.

Woohoo! Congrats!

@ Hotarla:
That was an interesting and common commentary among the browsers: "Like x browser, but faster!"

Lol I see.
Anyways I’ll just catch up on anime lol.
