Different Browsers Give Different Results

I’m looking for some guidance. I decided to switch away from the Microsoft Edge browser because of their use of AI, and I’m now using another browser called Dissenter that I have made my default browser. After adjusting some browser settings in Dissenter, it appeared I got every the way I like it in using Groups.io. After going through my group checking for functionality, I found some things do not work.

?

  1. Admin tab is the only tab not working.
  2. Home page Message History is missing. Message History displays using the Firefox browser, but each months totals do not link to messages in that month.
  3. Can open new topic message, but cannot enter any message text.
  4. Can view messages, but cannot use Reply or More.
  5. JPEG files in the Files section will not open unless downloaded to my computer first, but will open perfectly in the Photos section.
  6. Not all links on a links page work or display the same.

?

I’ll do some more tweaking with this browser, but maybe I will end up using another browser.

The Gab Dissenter browser was rife with vulnerabilities and development was abandoned three years ago. I encourage you to use something that's actively supported.

Save some effort, just go directly to Vivaldi (with it's built-in mail client in the case of the Windows version).

We’ve been discussing browsers in the CHAD group. Favourites seem to be Vivaldi and Brave, both cross-platform. I’ve used Brave (on Mac and iPhone) for a while and apart from the odd site it works very well. Vivaldi has more features, possibly more than most need.

I kind of gave up on Dissenter, and made Firefox my default browser. Everything works again like it should, except I haven't figured out how to get it to remember me after I have signed in yet. I'm working on it.

Thanks for the advice,

Don

The login is stored as a cookie. If you disable cookies, it won't work.

And whilst cookies are the engine of the web that follows us and allows ads to target us there are steps that can be taken. That is, if the work is done, the cookies can be managed and kept to a minimum.
This is merely a random link about cookies ON/cookies OFF:?
We may desire a curated collection of cookies to allow us to store the login for groups.io say. When there is a will, there is a way.

I found the section in Firefox for the assigning and saving cookies to use for logging into specific sites, but so far it is hit and miss if it saves it. Still working on it. After using one browser for so long, and getting use to how it works, it takes a little time to work through a new one.

I'll look at that link you offered Dave.

Thanks,
Don

I am thinking that this might be something that you should make Mark aware of thru the Beta group.

I'm not sure what you mean?

I included a link to the Beta Group. ?

Your anomaly is something it might be worthwhile to bring up tp Mark, Groups.io owner, on the Beta forum so that he is aware of it.?
