    I added a shim. Can you try now?

    Thanks for comment. It's the Rails default, will look into it. The latest Opera definitely supported, are you sure you can't upgrade?

    The site is beautiful and very responsive. Thanks for putting this together.

    One suggestion, maybe for a later iteration, is to improve the description of the companies and the "similar companies".

    For example, I know what Zscaler is but its description is somewhat of a word salad. "Zscaler, Inc. operates as a cloud security company worldwide. The company offers Zscaler Internet Access solution that provides users, workloads, IoT, and OT devices secure access to externally managed applications, including software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications and internet destinations; and Zscaler Private Access solution, which is designed to provide access to managed applications hosted internally in data centers, and private or public clouds."

    Personally, I would write a two sentence description and provide a link to the official company About Us page. For Zscaler, I would write something like: Headquartered in San Jose, California USA, Zscaler is a cloud security company. Its products include a Zscaler Secure Internet Access solution, Private Access solution, and Digital Experience solution. For further reading, refer to xxx.

    Because the descriptions are a bit vague, the "similar companies" for Zscaler include: Microsoft and Oracle which is a bit questionable. I appreciate the comparison to Palantir, Crowdstrike, and Palo Alto Networks.

      Hey thanks. Yeah it is a bit too long because it comes from a data provider. I simply can't write a shortened summary for 30000 companies. But point taken.

      The similar companies is purely industry segmentation, which can never be 100% correct. Different sites use different providers for segmentation and this is the best one I settled on.
