The concept is great, but I don't really find it worth pursuing because it's based on Jitsi.

I do really wanted to love Jitsi, but I've had frequent bad experiences. Every attempt I've had at a meeting has at least one person who's audio and video is bad to the extent that the rest of us can't really communicate with them.

I really do want to use it, but it always ends up with "Screw this, let's use Zoom"

And I have only had good experiences once we enforced _not_ using Firefox there were no problems.

'Use zoom and get screwed.'

I believe Firefox issues in Jitsi were a problem before but are sorted out now.

I believe Firefox's market share is now less than 4%, so I'm not really keen on wasting time supporting it.

Ah, so it's not a web app, it's a Chrome app.

Giving up on Firefox's bugs is not the same thing as not supporting Web standards. The problem is that Firefox is the one that doesn't correctly implement Web standards.

It's not my fault that Mozilla is a shitty company that makes a shitty browser and that every other company that used to make a browser is now skinning Chromium. I just live in this world, I didn't make it.

You want better Firefox support? Put up or shut up. It's open source.
