It's because they're using a chrome only API to interact with USB devices. This used to be a dedicated piece of software. I guess they don't even want to provide an electron app.

Is this an app for recording and editing podcasts? Why do they need usb access for that? On its website it doesn't says anything about usb.
Microphones, webcams, capture cards, etc
those do not require access to the underlying devices to get tho
What do they need that for? Every bowser has a file picker/dragndop.
I see it as them interacting directly with microphones, webcams, and other peripherals.
Every browser manages that too, though.
Have you tried spoofing your User Agent string?
Can you do a screen recording of the process of what it looks like to spoof a user agent string?
There are browser estensions that do it, don't remember the name though
I mean it's pretty straightforward but here you go

Only somewhat related - I "joined" gnu/linux 10 days ago or so, actually moving my main pc to Ubuntu last week (PopOS). Anyway - being as green as I am, I did search for "beginner tips" or "things to do" when installing Ubuntu/Linux.
I was very surprised that publication websites listed "install Chrome"... and it pretty much made me ignore those guides. Linux forums, reddit, etc were fine and what I opted to follow.
Welcome to the club! Happy to see a new user. Also you can usually just say PopOS and people will understand that it is Ubuntu based.
That really shouldn't be a shock
I think it should
For me it's a shock because I feel it shouldn't be possible. It's not a shock that Adobe would do something like this.
No, i get what you both mean, i guess what i mean is that we shouldn't internalize the defeat, we should keep being angry at companies for doing this shit
There’s hope. They do say while in beta. Maybe they’re working out issues on one before adapting to the other.
I found out yesterday that Firefly AI also does not work with Firefox
