I hope this news travels to more gen pop. My 82yo MIL uses Firefox because she’s concerned about the acceleratingly encroaching “police state”. That being said as an IT manager, it’s hard to tell my employees to incur the friction of broken Google services (Meet, a few others) for the intangible privacy benefits.

What Google services are broken on Firefox?

My anecdata is that GSuite works completely fine daily driving Firefox.

Every once in a while google meet is notably worse with firefox, or some feature is only enabled on chrome. Not a big deal.

Maps is the most frequent offender of something that is "kinda broken" on Firefox - black tiles/boxes, slowness, other things not rendering right. But on Chrome, it works fine 100% of the time.

Google meet works perfectly fine for me on Firefox

And even on Safari. But there are indeed chrome-only features AFAIK.
