    We’ve added a User Agent override for Slack.com, which allows Firefox users to use more Call features and have access to Huddles.

    What? Shouldn’t it be Slack’s responsibility to update their website to support more than just Chrome, considering it’s simply a user-agent check?

      I had a PR open for one of Slack’s open source repos to fix a bug that went unmerged for 13 months. I laughed out loud when I got the notification one day about the merge.

      Slack is slowwwwwww

      Does Microsoft teams still work without changing the user agent to Chrome on FF. I wonder mozilla doesn’t override the user agent for microsoft teams??

        I don’t use a browser for teams. I thought it was stand-alone software. I detest Microsoft teams. Come to think of it, I detest everything new that Microsoft has done in the past 5 years. Their One Drive backup software crashes their Microsoft Office applications.
