Earlier quoted context omitted.

Yup, and I meant that while the site indeed works terribly in Firefox, it also works terribly in Chrome.

Hey there, I'm the marketer on this project. I'd love to know which browser version you're on so we can find the right fix. We thoroughly tested on all major browsers but only the more recent versions so surprised that it's broken on Chrome too. Do let me know and we'll take a look. Thanks!

I'm using the most recent version of Chrome unstable and Firefox Developer Edition. I think that what most people in this thread are saying is not that there's are bugs, but that the UX of the website is so nonstandard and so confusing that it feels broken.

Two examples: - each page ("card"?!) opens in what feels like a modal dialog, but clicking outside of it doesn't close it like with normal dialogs. you must click on the tiny X button. - Moving between cards is insanely annoying. "Next card" but no "Previous card"?! The mere fact you figured you should add a "Grid view" shows that you realized how bad this is.

my 2 cents: instead of requiring users to do like 10 clicks to go from one PAGE to another, just put the menu on the left side with the title of the different pages and let people move between them with ONE click.
