Yup, you also need Chrome if you are using Google Meet, otherwise our experience will be significantly degraded.

Now on FF you also have the webcam filters and stuff like that on Google Meet.
It was my only reason to launch Chrome on my job laptop and it's been six months that I use Google Meet daily on FF without issue.
I and my coworkers have recently switched from WebEx to Meet in the last month (thank goodness), and all found meet unbearable on ff. The most common issue is audio simply going out a few minutes in until you refresh. These issues, for whatever reason, don't happen on chrome, so we all keep both installed (except the regular chrome users).
For whatever reason, the experience just isn't there. Maybe it's Mozillas fault, maybe it's Google's, maybe it's even Apple's.
