> Blurring background during live video calls is a pretty niche feature
Is it? Since the pandemic happened, working from home is rather mainstream along with video meetings. I wouldn’t call it niche when office space occupancy is down 50%.
- TechBro8615 4y agoSure. Why does Firefox make it hard to implement this feature then? And by the way, I agree with you/OP and feel similarly about siloed web features. But we're having a discussion here. It's unfortunate not everyone on HN remembers that downvotes are not for disagreement.
- ornornor 4y agoGoogle says Firefox is making it hard which is also a very convenient way to force users to use chrome (and log into their google account to enable the feature because… why?) Other video conferencing software like jitsi meet doesn’t seem to think it’s too hard for them to implement as blurring works perfectly well there without chrome or logging into google.
