> Anyway, OP can just inform their parents and fix this thing, if that was really the problem.

Yes, the little time we have in our lives, I really want to spend talking with my parents about topics like browser choices.

considering all this ai gen improvements, you should talk to them not just about browsers... scams that do imit ppl's voices are on the rise, you should also talk to them about being virgilent about some websites that do try to trick ppl, maybe even give some examples. The web is not safe and soon it'll be even less safe if there are photos of you/videos with your voice registered & available online

You'll have to do it anyway.

I have to explain on average once a month to family why some websites break on "the Apple internet app" (safari) and they should use Firefox or Chrome for critical stuff instead.

Had to explain again yesterday because Safari crashed to a white screen error on my wife's macbook while she was trying to buy plane tickets.

Firefox just worked.

Internet browsers are very present in 2024.

Something like this is really important considering the future of all of our live is digital whether we like it or not.

Have those discussions, educate them on choices, and it will make their lives much safer going forward.

Have you ... ever dealt with people? This doesn't seem to be the typical reality for most.
