gollark: I have some applications sending data over websocket to the browser - mostly JSON. They work in Chrome and Firefox on Android, but not on Firefox on my Linux systems - it just says "failed to establish connection". Specifically, they work if I run them directly on my local machine but not behind my server's reverse proxy.
gollark: Anyone know a good place to ask about this?
gollark: Also, the webserver doesn't seem to show any accesses happening either.
gollark: I still can't figure out why websockets on my site are behaving weirdly with Firefox and it's very annoying. I may still be using them wrong, but wireshark and mitmproxy don't show *any* request happening when Firefox connects, but do show the other requests for content and stuff.
