Google Meet Only Loves Chrome: R/Firefox

Mozilla has a Bugzilla report on this [1]. It's more than 3 months old, but still open and relevant.

This means that Google is back to their dirty market manipulation games. This hideous strategy is a big part of how Chrome won the market [2]. They deliberately wrecked Firefox's market share.

It's very sad that they can carry on with this abuse because there is nobody left to intervene of the users' behalf. Right now, one way to overcome this malicious UX degradation is to spoof the user agent. But the best option in the long run is to abandon Google services altogether. They're very much willing to abuse your trust and freedom.
