 ## Browser Support
 
-Support is best for [Google Chrome](https://www.google.com/intl/en_ca/chrome/) and Chromium based browsers (such as [Microsoft Edge based on Chromium](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge)). We try and maintain compatibility with [Mozilla Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-CA/firefox/new/) and [Apple Safari](https://www.apple.com/ca/safari/) as well.
