Because my employer forces me to use G Suite and some of the features of that (Meet) don't work well (or at all) in non-Chrome browsers.

- daxelrod 8y agoI use Meet exclusively from Firefox, and it works just as well as in Chrome. Note that Hangouts does not work in Firefox. However, it works in Safari.
- 4ad 8y ago> Hangouts does not work in Firefox. However, it works in Safari. ...barely. If you pop-out a window, it disconnects and closes the window after a minute or two of inactivity if the window is not active. This makes it totally unusable to me. This started on October 30 2016. I submitted a series of bug reports to Apple, but they were all ignored and/or closed for inactivity. In case you care enough to submit your own bug report, please reference Apple bug 44725612, 29018740 and 28263663. I'm pretty sure that Google could implement a fix/workaround, but good luck with that. This drives me nuts. I have to keep a Chrome open just to use Hangouts.
- driverdan 8y agoMeet does not work as well in Firefox. If I use my BT headset I have to go into settings and switch back and forth between mics and outputs to get it to work. The connection fails more frequently than Chrome too.
- h2onock 8y agoWouldn’t you just use your work account for this then and keep it separate from your personal digital footprint? I would, or I’d change jobs.
