Try user agent switcher. More often than not, websites work just fine with firefox but refuse to load when the browser identifies as not-fascist-google-trash.
Had to do that to do my fucking MATH HOMEWORK because Pearson “doesn’t work with Linux”. Switched my user agent to windows and all of a sudden it works just fine
I wish Mozilla would use some of their millions to bring a class action lawsuit against sites that pointlessly lock people out just because they’re not using Chrome/Safari/Edge.
These companies typically have management take the IT advice from their IT managers, and if those intentionally block non Windows/Google/fascist software, you don’t find anyone in the organization willing to listen to you. The only way to fight this is by not doing business with them whenever avoidable.

And for when switching user agents doesn’t work: ungoogled chromium saves the day

I wish Microsoft and Google homies would just get beamed into a parallel universe to ruin with their bullshit…

You and me both, but as long as we allow accumulation of capital, that’s not gonna happen, I’m afraid.
Thanks! I’ll have to give that a try.
You are welcome. Worked fine last time I tried it with e.g. the Teams web client (forced to use it for work still)
Report the error to the company and to Mozilla.
That’s basically never an error, but malice. But I admire your naivity :)
Oh, I agree with you. But the more we publicize this, the more pressure we can apply to site devs to support multiple browsers.
