Recently became enlightened to free software so I decided to slowly attempt to switch over. I decided to change my web browser (which was google chrome). I switched to Firefox at first and every time I opened it i got the "your connection is not secure" message. I looked up fixes for it but none of it worked. So then I tried switching to Waterfox. Waterfox worked great at first but wouldn't allow me to watch netflix and would ignore the exceptions for pop-ups that I set. So Now I am trying Iridium and still netflix videos wont play. Also I cannot enlarge photos on twitter or play videos off of it. How can I fix my problems with Iridium? Or any of the other free browsers? Am I a lost cause retard?

Sounds like its something to do with your OS, not the browser in this case.

This.
Also, use Pipelight along with your Firefox browser.

I thought netflix still required silverlight to work. I doubt iridium would support such nonfree software. If you really want to make the switch to freedom you should probably start out by ditching netflix since it is a mess of drm and proprietary software.
