Are there many open source frontends for Twitch? I Xtra on Android
This is a cookies/tracking issue, not a Firefox issue.
If you set it to allow tracking, it will let you login, and you can disable tracking again after and it will remember you.
Anecdotally, it’s still working for me. Using uBlock Origin, logged in with a Twitch account.
What does the “recommend browser” link point to? Is it this page, which lists Firefox as a supported browser? https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/supported-browsers?language=en_US
I just logged in, no issues, probably check your extensions. Mine are minimal, includes uBlock, regular Firefox updated to latest.
Same, just logged in fine. Firefox on Linux from Arch repos.
Everyone boo this service! BOOOOOOOOOOO!
Stop using recommended when you mean required FFS.
The same thing happens with webkit.
I had to disable an extension to log in last time I got this message. Alternatively, force refresh the page.

Sorry I’m blind, and I cannot see the image. Would you mind telling me what you posted?
Sorry I’m a fucking monkey, can you translate your comment to monkey noises?

Fuck blind people who need to google error messages, right?
/s
Upper screen: [Twitch Logo] Login to Twitch
Box with error notice: Your browser is currently not supported. Please use a recommended browser or learn more here.
Then there is just a standard login form
@TonyTonyChopper @library_napper It does not.
When I got that message I just refreshed the page and tried logging in again and it worked.
You need to disable resist fingerprinting. It’s annoying, but you can reenable it after you’ve logged in
No, you need to email twitch that they have a bug.
And boycott them if they’re intentionally trying to harm marginalized folks.
That’s the solution if you immediately tried to login and it didn’t work.
Twitch login has in general very misleading error messages. The exact same message with unsupported browser also appears if you take too long to login
Firefox is actually one of the recommended browsers, if you were to click on that link. Twitch just has some issues sometimes
Yup, I use Twitch all the time on Firefox (including yesterday), and with an ad-blocker as well.
Just a comment: IMO it’s not worth using strong passwords on which you depend on privative/unknown security platforms. Who knows how many times they get hacked or have backdoors? Unless they specify they only store the hash I refuse to sacrifice one of my strong passwords.
Sacrifice? Tf you on about?
Bro over here still using one of his “strong passwords” trying to give other people security advice 😅
How about just using a password manager and create a unique strong password for every website? That way you don’t have to store so much in your brain and you get better security on any website. You also don’t have to worry about more than one website being breached from reused passwords.
BitWarden is pretty great and is open source and free to use.
You can also self-host it if you don’t trust them storing your hashed passwords.
That is definitely an autofilled one-off password from a password manager.
You can see the keypassxc plugin button right there. What is the thread op on about lol.
You should use randomly generated passwords from a password manager, there is no short supply of strong random passwords.
Waste one of my 2272657884496751345355241563627544170162852933518655225856 possible 32 character passwords on Twitch! Outrageous! What if I run out?
I really don’t believe twitch is blocking Firefox. Check your add-ons, clear cookies, etc.
I’ve also had trouble logging into Twitch a few times over the last year on Firefox, but the same is true for Paypal. Both of them don’t work in a private window without any addons either, and at least for Paypal changing the user agent didn’t help. Twitch works fine If I’m already logged into Twitch, same with Paypal. Just the login fails for some reason.
There’s other payment options, and I seldomly watch streams anyway.
You’re right. I only get this when Twitch can see I’m using a VPN.
Does it still let you sign in? I am currently signed in and it works
No, I tried to log in so i can change my password
