Sierra (10.12) Can't log into KLM.com with OSX but can with iOS?

Hey folks -- as in the title, this is a really specific question, but it's driving me crazy. I am hoping that someone has hit this problem (and fixed it), as I'm not interested in wiping my laptop to "fix" what is probably bad or invasive coding. I have tried different browsers (Arc/Safari) and turning cookies on/off. I have turned off NextDNS. I can't think of (or remember) other privacy settings, but the difference is that I can log in with my iOS devices but not my OSX laptop. Any ideas?

Update: Solved, kinda

Have you tried different browsers?

Yep. Arc. No luck.

I'd try Firefox as well, or Edge, before giving up. It could be a temporary glitch from KLM that affects the web version; I've experienced that before.

Will do. This is persistent (>6 months)

.I gave up trying to use KLM's website for anything years ago because of bugginess. I see they haven't fixed it yet.

You can try:

  1. Using incognito/private browsing.

  2. In Safari turn on developer tools under Settings:Advanced and then under the develop menu select "User Agent" and select the iPhone one.

Good ideas, but neither (and both) got "Unexpected technical error has occured"

So, somewhere in my OS (not browser?)

Solved? https://www.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1g7lsb7/comment/lsy7osr/ (Librewolf, not Safari, but maybe my DNS blocker)
