I've been considering switching over to Firefox after being a day-one adopter of Chrome and this helped become a tipping point to get me to switch over. Though, full disclosure: I've been working to limit Google services in my day-to-day life (Maps, Gmail, and now Chrome) in the last couple of months over privacy concerns.

I've been using Firefox for quite awhile as my primary browser. I'm now to the point that I only use Chrome for checking websites I'm working on. I've had no complaints about Firefox. For me it is fast and stable.

Does Firefox work with Gooogle Hangouts/Meet/“whatever it’s called now”?

I know they were working on removing the need for plugins in other browsers. Ut last time I checked it was still a bit iffy.

This is what’s keeping Chrom(e|ium) installed on my machines right now. (I have a customer that uses it extensively).

If Hangouts works in Firefox I think I'll uninstall Chrome.

To answer my own question, yes Hangouts does work fine in Firefox. Not tried screen sharing yet but video calls work for me.

[Lio]

Nope. To expand my answer, only certain versions of Hangouts work with Firefox, sigh.

I made the tentative switch last fall to try out their much touted Quantum when it was newly released. A year later and I haven't looked back.

After reading a little I randomly plonked on Brave. Selfishly, I wanted to know if our stuff worked on it- encryption, chunking etc. To my joy, it does and.... Brave is pretty cool. Converted.

I have noticed Xero doesn't work on Brave. Not my product so not so concerned but I'm going to investigate to see what Xero is doing that we are not. ie why my dev's stuff works and xero's does not.

Same, I just made the switch today because of this change. We'll see how it pans out.
