Dave, others and I ran into this back in the end of September 2020 in

annoyingly doing this. :(
Yep. I find financial institutions in general to have this issue, and
Chase seems to be the most aggressive.
Yeah, I'm seeing more non-financial ones too like
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/ that takes me to
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/unsupported-browser?err=custom-elements,shadow-dom
(at least, it still supports Firefox). I had a specific thread about
this issue in my 9/2/2020 9:38 PM PDT newsgroup post titled
"RottenTomatoes.com rejects SeaMonkey even with fake UAs."
I went as far as the login screen, and there's the usual drivel about
security issues. Earlier today, I was reading the meeting notes from
Seamonkey devs, and they're pretty current on getting updates backported.
It really comes down to the people at Chase don't want to be bothered
with anything other than Chrome, current versions of Firefox, Safari,
and maybe Edge.
Yep. This had been around when Internet Explorer (IE) was winning the
web browser war before Chrome joined the fight. Now, IE is way down like
Firefox and SeaMonkey with Chrome being the top. Developers are lazy,
don't want to work more, and don't care. Argh. :(
For what it's worth, I was just at Constant Contact, and they explicitly
complained about Seamonkey, but didn't prevent me from logging in.
Hmm, we all should complain. Is there a specific contact method you
used? Did they answer back yet?
