I have to use Chrome for...

  1. Logging into PSN, since something in Firefox hard locks when I try it. I think it's to do with Firefox's password manager.

  2. VR porn.

  3. Some videos. Firefox doesn't support certain video types (namely HEVC/H.265) due to patent issues.

Why wont VR porn work anywhere else?

Firefox doesn't appear to support it. Chrome does.

At least on this site.

I think it's to do with WebXR support, but I'm not digging through 10 layers of bullshit JS to find out for certain.

Fair enough :)

Hm, I tried the site and the lady was getting rammed for me in Firefox 123 in Windows.
