It’s bizarre how blatent this is. Google has so much power over web standards that Mozilla have to work really hard to make firefox work, but YouTube don’t bother being subtle or clever and just write ‘if Firefox, get stuffed’ in plain text for everyone to see.
Google has been doing this kind of thing for a while. If you try to use Google Meet in Firefox, you can’t use things like background blurring. Spoofing Chrome works in that situation as well.
And the stupid thing is that all I use Chrome for is Meets… And that’s it. Do they really think they win me over?
The fuck?? Isn’t this anti competitive behaviour?
Yes. The US DOJ has a website for reporting antitrust concerns
BTW, this:
This is some ultimate scumbaggery.
This should be illegal, Firefox being their competition (tangentially)
