Roll.20 for some reason does not like different browsers

So I'm able to get into roll20 with a different browser however it runs roll20 super slow for some reason and the new one that I used gave me an error  whenever I press "sign in"  the page refuses to load and displays "Access to accounts.roll20.net was denied: you don't have authorization to view this page", along with. HTTP error 403. I looked around for a bit and saw that other people had this issue but their was no solution from what I had seen so I was wondering it their was a trouble shoot to fix it or something along that line.

Hi Ainz Ooal Gown,  Which browsers are you trying to use?

Indeed, only Chrome and Firefox are supported. That means, if you can get another browser to work, that's cool, but if not you won't see any official support.

I've seen folks mention getting a 403 error in Chrome twice in the past few days. Try using an Incognito (Chrome) or Private Browsing (Firefox) window first. If that works, then clearing your cache and history worked for 1 person so far.  I always Launch games in an  Incognito or  Private Browsing window. I use a regular browser window only for these forums.

I haven't gotten any 403 errors or disconnects while using Chrome since I made a habit of clearing cache every time I intend to open a game, whether it's to work on the game or actual play. My biggest annoyance is sandbox crashes, which is why I always keep a separate tab open to the sandbox screen to facilitate restarts. Also, long ago I had to disable my ad blocker for this site. Roll20 doesn't throw that many at you and  as far as I've noticed they only appear on the home screen.
The engine was Microsoft edge that is the one that is causing the error to pop up I'm using chrome now but it runs very slow for me when compared to Microsoft Edge which ran smoothly .
I use Chrome exclusively except when I fire up Firefox to test things. It's speed very much depends on the day of the week. Fridays and Saturdays tend to be the worst, especially evenings (I, GMT-5).

Unfortunately Edge is not an officially supported browser on Roll20. If it works, great, but if it doesn't the Dev's response has always been to switch to one of the supported browsers. Right now there are two browsers which Roll20 supports, Chrome and Firefox.
