> Your browser doesn't support Hangouts Meet

No, Google, it's the other way round. Hangouts Meet doesn't support my browser. Quit trying to blame your lazy coding on others.

Sort of like how my Firefox does support yubikey through an extention, but Google just hardcodes the user agent as not working.

It is a bit different, Firefox doesn't support one TLS extension that Google wants to perform a Yubikey authentication.

Not trying to blame FF here as I am also using it...

This is extra lazy on their part if this is legitimately an effort to hit the enterprise market, where users might not necessarily have the freedom to install Chrome on their company machines. Or it's an attempt to force corporate IT into approving chrome.

The enterprise market would be the least likely place you'd find Firefox.

I'd guess IE, Chrome, Firefox in that order. Maybe Edge in there but since it's new a lot of Enterprises will be fearful.
