URL: https://w.kast.gg/?_branch_match_id=704863418157713302

Browser / Version: Firefox 71.0
Operating System: Windows 10
Tested Another Browser: Yes Edge

Problem type: Something else
Description: Chrome Exclusive
Steps to Reproduce:
Kast, the reincarnation of the Rabbit service, is Chrome only.

If I open Firefox Developer Tools, enable Responsive Design Mode, and use a custom user agent of Chrome 80 on Windows 10: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/80.0.3970.5 Safari/537.36, the site is browsable and usable, with exception to actually viewing the stream.

It would be better if the site would display this warning when trying to view a stream, instead of blocking access to the entire site based solely on user agent.

@carlbennett as you did the diagnosis and suggested an experience acceptable for the user, could you contact them?

I don't think we can had much more on top of your suggestions. :)
Thanks for letting us know.

This is the issue with Kast that stopped me from using their site. It's poorly developed, there is no reason to allow- or denylist user agents, many users use a variety of web browsers not exclusive to Chrome, denying anyone not using Chrome is silly.
