Are we moving to the Chrome only world?

Using a UA switcher and FF, I can't seem to find anything broken. I think the author of this page is just a bit zealous for chrome.

It also seems to work without UA switcher, but still states it won't work. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Perhaps the modern equivalent of “best viewed in Netscape”?

Doesn't work for me either. Ubuntu 18.04.3 and Firefox 68.0.1.

The console gives this error: "TypeError: m is null".

Works for me in Firefox 68.0.1 in Win10, kinda slow tho but it might be because of my hardware setup.

Do you mind to share which browser you're using? It's working fine for me on Firefox.

When I load it, the website states that the simulation does not work on Firefox + Linux. Works fine for me when I re-opened it in Falkon (WebKit-based).

Edit: another responder to the parent comment said it works for them on Firefox dev edition on Arch Linux. I'm using Nightly on Arch and it gives the message stated above. With a UA switcher set to Chrome Windows, it loads but renders the image strips on the map as black stripes instead of 'textured' ones. Interesting...

Works for me on firefox-developer-edition. Does not work on vanilla chromium. ArchLinux.
