Chromium has better features, but with google announcing its plan to 'drm the internet' I 'm not sure if it'd be a good idea.

I’ve worked from home full-time since we were all sent home in March of 2020, and the background of the room I use was one of the first things I figured out that week.

Not sure what you’ve got in your living space that you’re ashamed of, but even if it’s a hovel, the bosses should see that and it should guilt them into paying you more!!

It is privacy. I don't have mess, just don't feel like sharing inside of my house with strangers. Maybe I'm working in weird company, but I noticed that vast majority of coworkers either have camera off, blurs the background or sets up a fake one.

Yeah, I’ve never understood that. I find people like me better when I’m not hiding who I am.
