I cant get Google drive links to stream in Firefox, thus I still keep Google Chrome around. Am I doing something wrong or is there a work around?

Usually an issue like that is due to me having something blocked in uBlockOrigin or some other extension.

I think they worked for me without issue or me doing anything special (a month or so ago though) so there's likely something you can do to get it to work.

I can check later today if they still work with whatever firefox setup I have

I appreciate that, yeah let me know if there's anything that stands out to ya

Yeah I can confirm it works with no issues for me.

Only extension is ublock origin (no settings changed) and Firefox is on version 117.0

It's probably either an extension that's breaking it for you or Google is doing some A B testing that's only breaking it for some people
