When going to use Adobe express on Firefox it comes up with the following message, saying that this browser doesn't play well with others and that I should use Safari, Google Chrome, or Microsoft Edge instead.

I’m skeptical if it really doesn’t. Maybe it works if you switch the browser’s user agent, maybe.

Switched my browse agent like and it seemed to work fine. Adobe just sucks.

I knew it! They simply hate Firefox because it blocks adobe’s ads.

That’s what I’m leaning towards tbh.

Is that even legal?

Edit: to clarify, is it even legal for a company to block access to a website based on the browser the user chooses, even if there are no apparent technical reasons.
