[Bug] Insomnia uses Internet Explorer as internal browser which is no longer supported by GitHub #1811

Description

@hf-kklein

When using GitHub as an authentication provider (via auth0) for implicit granty type OAuth2 Authorization the GitHub Login page is opened in a browser window embedded in Insomnia.

There's a warning on top of the window that says:

Please note that GitHub no longer supports your web browser.
We recommend upgrading to the latest Google Chrome or Firefox.

After I entered a 2FA code there's an error message:

What‽
Your browser did something unexpected. Please contact us if the problem persists.

Although there's this error message, the access token was successfully be retrieved on second try.

I configured Firefox to be my default browser.
