I used to upload and download my photos fine from my samsung mobile phone. This is being showed to me since the past 5 days all of a sudden.

Is it really a problem of my phone ??

    I had the same problem with reddit. Apparently none of my browsers could run their powerful site so I had to download their app.

    Just kidding. FUCK SPEZ

    They’re flat out lying to you…

    Most people would just stop trying to use that service at that point

    You have an option in your settings to request “desktop mode” which may change this.

    They probably want to increase the number of users on their app and are trying to force mobile users over, the “not powerful enough” statement is likely a lie.

    “Not powerful enough” lol - BS excuse for wanting you to use the app. A different browser (most likely chromium due to compatibility reasons) would most likely fix it.

    What browser do you use? If it needs a chromium browser, Brave would be sufficient, most likely. You might have to select it as a default browser app on your phone too.

        Midori is indeed Firefox based. As @lordbritishbusiness@lemmy.world mentioned, it might be worth quickly trying to switch to desktop mode (in the browser menu).

        If that doesn’t work, try switching to Brave.

        If that doesn’t work either, consider finding a new service, honestly, as this kind of user unfriendliness shouldn’t be acceptable. try open an issue here.

            Might want to specify that it didn’t work with Midori, but it worked with Brave.

            Also that the “not powerful enough” error be updated to the actual issue. I seriously don’t believe power is part of the reason here, but I’m open to being proved wrong.

              On Midori, it keeps on rolling. But on brave, it opened asap.

              Any problem with Midori ??🤔🤔🤔

                The cynical possibility: perhaps due to being Firefox/Gecko-based, which usually entails being privacy-oriented

                The statistical possibility: market share for Chromium browsers is so much bigger than Gecko’s that developers didn’t bother to implement compatibility after an update - or are experimenting to see if it’s worthy it

                The hopeful possibility: it was a glitch, the site or the browser having updated something that changed the user-agent or the expected one, and the site didn’t know what to do with the current one.

                  Whatever might be the reason, the developers ought to have taken care of the browser aspect.

    I would think the chameleon extension would help bypass this if your using a Firefox based browser. Mines always set to fake being edge so websites think I’m not using Firefox.
