I tried that page from Firefox on android. Wth would they remove the downloads? Anyway.. their web pages and developer resources are clearly disfunctional garbage, and their cross platform commitment almost non-existent. I think it's still fair to say swift won't displace java anytime soon.

They probably think that you are not going to download 1GB+ video on mobile. I don't know, you must ask them. Anyway, there is no conspiracy to deny the WWDC videos to non-Safari users or to piss them off. It's just how the Apple is, they have protocol they were pushing for a long time (HLS), they are certainly not going to use competitor (MMS or DASH). In Firefox on Android, check Request Desktop Site and you will get the download links. Or use Chrome for Android, it supports HLS streaming. Meanwhile, you can file bug to Firefox bugzilla and ask for HLS. I don't think Swift would replace Java anytime soon either. From JVM languages Kotlin has better chances, from non-JVM languages probably Go. (Sorry Rust fans, a typical enterprise programmer is not going to learn how to appease the borrow checker).
