Hi Jabbatron,


​Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities. I understand that the built-in applications on your Mac work with location services, but a third-party web browser does not seem to.


I recommend clicking Apple menu () > System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Location Services. There, make sure the app in question is checked. This has more detail for reference: Manage which apps can detect your Mac location


If that doesn't resolve the issue, you might try reinstalling the affected app to see if that helps.


Best wishes.
