Recently, I had trouble accessing the Next Soundcloud. No matter which url I tried, the general error page appeared, telling me something went wrong and recommending modern browsers.
The browser console said that the app failed when accessing window.localStorage
:
TypeError: localStorage is null
Indeed, I had dom.storage
globally disabled in my Firefox config. There may be other users out there who are using a modern browser but have dom.storage
disabled and thus may feel left alone with this generic error page.
I'd appreciate something like an alert box that informs the users about missing support for that particular feature. Try this fiddle with dom.storage
disabled/enabled. It's implemented in a few minutes but makes the user experience way better, I think.
So, are there already some kind of specific error pages being planned for Soundcloud?
