[Bug 1447246] [NEW] Flickr warns about an unsupported browser

 

Public bug reported:

I don't know exactly where to file this.  But here goes:

- Go to the Nearby scope
- Click on a Flickr image
- Click "View on Flickr"
- The browser opens on Flickr with a page that says: "Grass could be greener on this side" and "You seem to be using an unsupported browser.  To get the most out of Flickr please upgrade to the latest version of Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Internet Explorer."

There's a tiny white button that says "No thanks, take me to the site
anyway"

But users shouldn't see this page if possible.  I realize this is best
solved on the Flickr side.  Is there anything we can do in the meantime?
Or someone that can talk to Flickr?
