I'd be off of Chrome in a heartbeat if it weren't for all the Google properties required by my work, which themselves cripple non-Chromium browsers. (Looking at you, Meet!)

Firefox, for all of Mozilla's faults, stands head-and-shoulders over Chrome in terms of good and respectful user experience.

I use Google meet just fine on Firefox at work. Even video filters work. The only thing I can imagine not being 100% is tab-only sharing
woah, filters work now! i am 100% firefox at home and 95% at work, i keep (kept, yay!) chrome for meet so i could blur. thanks for mentioning this!
It's been working for months if you spoof your user agent to chrome. Google just really taking their time allowing Firefox to use filters on Meets.
Generally isn't a user agent change enough?
you can use different browsers for Meet and for browsing. I use different browsers for basically everything, tech stuff, reddit and everything more salacious, banking, email
I use Fx as my daily browser, and for meetings I just open Meet in Chrome.
