  • Netflix in Firefox 147.0.2?

    I just re-subscribed to Netflix (to watch the Royal Rumble tomorrow, the
    only wrestling event I like) and I notice that Firefox has trouble just logging into the Netflix site. I can't even log in, it keeps failing to
    load and trying again. Is this a known issue?

    I would recommend using Chrome for video streaming.

    I haven't watched anything on Netflix in years, but the last time I did Firefox (on Linux) worked fine with it. I guess something could have
    changed.

    I gave up and just decided to go back to Brave. Every Chromium-based
    browser worked fine, only Firefox failed.

    I'll have to see if I can watch videos using Firefox on Netflix now. I think my wife still has a Netflix account through T-Mobile.
