But then shouldn't there be a delay when using actual Chrome?
There's people reporting exactly that if they're using certain ad-blocking tools.
I did see Chrome users mention a delay (on lemmy) but I haven't personally checked it out
My understanding is the method they can use on chrome is near instant, but the alternative they use on Firefox is slower, hence the delay. Is this BS? Yeah probably, but it does at least logically follow.
It could be as simple as for Chrome assuming there is a certain API, while for Firefox, give it a try and assume no if no response in 5sec
