That's not entirely true, yet with regard to firefox. 45.8.0 ESR

It depends... I'm developing a map product using the ESRI
Javascript API and it won't go on XP's Firefox. The OpenGL calls
just aren't there. It might be the underlying hardware but it
hasn't worked on any XP box we tested.

That's actually a driver issue. Rather, lack of support in XP to do it.

Many websites still do work but I'm thinking the move to HTML5
rather than Flash (cursed be thy name) will create more problems
for XP browsers.

I don't have flash installed on this machine. It parses HTML5 just
fine, so far. Plays video from youtube, wimp, etc. no issues.
