Summary

I was actually not able to get it working on chromium, but I only freshly installed chromium to attempt to use Google Meet based on this info, so I didn't touch that part.

From April 15: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-doc/pull/373

Ideally, this would list the browser used when testing. This is a quickly moving target as both browsers and meeting software evolve, we would need a couple more "works here" reports from users before we can make that claim in the handbook.

Thanks for quick reply. Stable and sane reasoning I appreciate about this project.

Is it appropriate for me to ask a (which?) mailing list if anyone is using it/willing to test and chime in here?

I'm worried it's consequential if the docs says something doesn't work, when it actually does, and lots of people need it for work. Especially as there's about to be a release.

Update: Google Meet has been consistently working on 14.1 and 15-CURRENT across many new releases of Firefox since I authored this proposed revision.

I've used Google Meet with Firefox many times, since at least FreeBSD 13, but probably earlier.

Update, Google meet is still working on Firefox 132 on FreeBSD-15.0C
