Get a user agent switcher extension
I haven't checked, but I'd guess it's because of some non-standard feature that only Chromium supports, not because of user-agent.
In my experience, companies typically use this message because they only officially support/test on the listed browsers. They block out any other browser to cut down on support emails. If you spoof your user agent so the site thinks you're using a supported browser, somewhere between 95%-100% of the functionality will usually work just fine.
That's the thing - i haven’t checked either. Guess what's the next step? User agent switcher
