(Jumping in at random, not responding to Stephan specifically)

On a counter-point: My first-gen airpods are getting _much_ better battery life (on order of 2x) with Meetecho than with other conferencing services. This seems extremely weird to me. I had similar results yesterday using latest production Safari on an M1 macbook pro, and today using latest Chrome on same machine.

Things like vsync do not work for me in Firefox (and there are multiple rendering engines in Firefox, last I looked) even under Linux, with r600g 3d acceleration - Chrome is fine.
