Description

Both files contain the same section about compatible browsers, see https://github.com/OpenRefine/OpenRefine/pull/5231/files for example.

Proposed solution

… have a page on browser compatibility which is linked from both locations?

Alternatives considered

Define either one to be the single source of truth, and replace the 2nd list with a link to the 1st.

Additional context

This is a follow-up to an open discussion in the above-mentioned PR.

Research direction

Start by comparing the browser-compatibility sections in manual/installing.md and manual/running.md, then review the linked PR discussion for the intended source-of-truth approach. Done means the duplicated browser list is replaced by one shared page or canonical location, with both manuals linking to it and no conflicting list remaining.
