Given this is facebook.

  1. They probably know about the issue, they have set the message.
  2. We can contact them on the mailing list
  3. @softvision-sergiulogigan Could you double check that this is still not working when faking the ua to be chromm.

@karlcow I just retested, and it seems that in order to share screens, a Chrome extension is needed.

So it's not working on FF with Chrome UA, because we don't have that extension available.

karlcow commented 4 years ago

so I guess that makes the issue in between a wontfix or asking facebook why the extension is not available for Firefox. Let's put this on the contactready pile.

Thanks @softvision-sergiulogigan
