Mozilla introduces a new website compatibility report tool in Firefox that Firefox users may use to report broken sites to the organization.

Nice, I assume this is to go with their recent efforts to call out monopolistic/ anticompetitive behavior?

Now on the rare occasion I need to open up Chrome, I'm going to take a moment to file a report. From memory, it's been a problem with certain google docs authentication steps, and a federal government finance site.

I'm all for this!

This is sort of what the Google reports were trying to do as well, provide feedback on shitty websites to fix their BS for the users. Ignoring some of the google-preferred solutions, a lot of the reporting metrics is valid. Make your site accessible. Don't load your site with 2megs of JS. Make sure the page loads quickly.
