Blaming Microsoft is handy for when your web app works great in Chrome but fails in IE and Edge. I guess if you're doing apps for devices, blaming Apple and Google is just as good though.
However, in 30 years, I haven't found a coding problem that couldn't be solved by working through it much like I described. It was more difficult in the early, pre-Internet, 90's when I had to fly out to customer sites to figure out tricky software-hardware interface issues.
I vaguely recall pre-web coding... they weren't pleasant. Lots of focus, sure, but few avenues for help.
Today, like many time in my experience, I've often resorted to good workarounds, acceptable workarounds, or at times abandoning features due to problems. It isn't pleasant, but I think it's necessary sometimes.

We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
And when that fails as well?
My step 1 typically includes Apple and Google lately, not Microsoft.
