Firefox different behavior Linux version vs Windows
Hi,
When I try to access the website www.delhaize.be with both firefox for Win10 and for Li nux I get a different result. In both cases I tried in SafeMode all Extension off
With Win10 I am able to click on the language selection (French) and go on dealing with the cookies choice and continue shopping. With FF for Linux, although I click on the language button it sticks there and it is not possible to go on.
Any idea on how to troubleshoot ?
Cheers

I'm able to replicate the issue in all version of Firefox and Waterfox. Not Dev, but I blame the website if it works for you in Firefox in Windows and not Linux. ;-)) It even fails in ESR version.

Hi,
I have done a test and if I use a user-switcher extension and I fake to be on FF Windows 10 the site is accessible.
How can I troubleshoot deeper ?
You might be right on the root cause but I ain´t going to win if I complain with the supermarket.
This is as far as I can go. Someone with Dev experience will have to chime in. I think you have good evidence if you used a switcher and it works in linux. ;-)) If it's working for you then case closed. You can also run a windows VM (qemu).
It looks like when the site detects Linux instead of Windows it stops loading prematurely. There are more than twice as many files retrieved when I test with my normal profile versus a test profile where I set a Linux user agent.
I don't know why that would be, whether it is related to their analytics scripts or some kind of flawed attempt at customization for different operating systems. ??
