    Change user agent. Log in, opting to stay logged in for 30 days. Change user agent back.

    That’s my routine with LibreWolf.

    I also believe they don’t like a particular security setting present on FF based browsers, though I don’t recall off the top of my head which one.

        Something you shouldn’t have to do in order to use the internet.

        There are browser plugins that let you change your user-agent request header to masquerade as another browser (e.g., Chrome).

        User-Agent is a string of information that browsers use to identify to a site what browser, version, build, etc you are using.

        You can download FF extensions that allow you to spoof a different user-agent, making the site think you’re instead using Chrome, as an example.
