Add-on summary
I wanted to switch to Firefox, but hangouts and meet didn't work for me... and that was causing me lots of pain.
This extension lets me define which urls should be opened in Chrome and does that.
Requires an extra application. Find it with instructions at https://onchrome.gervas.io/native-applications
User reviews
Perfect - like the author, I want to use Google Meet in Chrome but Firefox for everything else, and it does exactly what it says on the tin.
I couldn't use brew to install the native extra application, but I installed in manually and everything worked fine.
It's wonderful when people solve their own technical problems and then release the solutions for others to benefit from, thanks very much to Gervasio.

I'm sure it works fine but I'm using Ungoogled Chromium and it didn't recognize it. (Yes I installed the additional required program.) I wish it was compatible with ALL Chromium-based browsers, and not just Chrome. For privacy reasons I don't want Chrome on my PC. That's the whole reason why I use Firefox to begin with.
