That honestly sounds like a you issue, not a browser issue.

I would have killed for the capabilities web browsers have now back in 2000. I was forced to build Java applets to get anything close, and the user experience sucked.

But the user experience sucks far more today. People are opting out. That’s how bad it is.

Websites today offer little over the ones from 15-20 years ago functionality-wise. In fact they have less features in the name of 'simplicity' that results in their being bloated memory hogs with javascript.
