Github Codespaces Not Working On Firefox (Occasionally) #38956
-
Select Topic AreaBug CodeSpacesHey there, I hope you're having a great day! 👋 I am glad that GitHub has released free access to Codespaces! I created a Codespace (on Firefox) when I received an error (I don't have a screenshot of it) telling me that it was not working and that restarting/relaunching the Codespace could fix it and unfortunately it didn't. I then went on to switch to Chrome and everything worked perfectly. After an hour or so, I decided to try it on Firefox and it worked. Annoyingly, this occurs a few times. Was this just a problem with my browser or was this a bug on Codespaces? 🤔 Thank you for reading! |

probably on the side of the browser, unfortunately, it may sound absurd for others, most developers prefer to adhere in Chrome than in FireFox, also, maybe it's an issue of RAM management by Firefox, because even if Chrome is hogging the RAM of your computer, it's using it efficiently |

@Didward In my case it was a browser privacy setting and not memory management or compatibility. |
