Has anyone found a solution to Peacock not working on Linux? I am just starting the process of removing Google and Microsoft from my life so I am very new to Linux.

I don't use any streaming services, but my first guess would be a chromium browser, such as ungoogled-chromium. It always seems to have the best video capabilities out of all other browsers.

That is definitely not the solution. Apparently Peacock won't stream through any browser on linux.

And thank you for that. I just realized I forgot that in my first reply.
