A friend of mine sent me a link to his me.com web page, which has pictures and videos of his family. I remember being able to view these pages from my linux box before using FF 2, but now, the pictures don't show up in Firefox at all, either on my Linux box, or on my Macbook Pro. He's getting the same results, apparently.
This will be a huge problem for me, as I just activated my .me account and planned on uploading pictures for my wife's family and such. I'm sure that they either use IE or FF, but certainly not Safari. I personally, really dislike Safari and even if it wasn't sluggish (on the MBP), I'd not want to use it just because I was being forced to, in order to use the .me account. I find this agitating as ****. And now, when I go to www.me.com, I can't even browse the site because it says that FF is not supported, and that I should have either Safari or, get this... FF 2 or later ? But I AM using FF 3 !?
Is Apple trying to force people to use Safari ? Cuz I won't bite and might consider canceling my .me account if that's true. Though I'd have to think there's a more logical explanation. Risking the alienation of so many people wouldn't be a good move IMO.
Thoughts ?
