only works in Chrome [...] please have Chrome downloaded
If it’s not expensive to find out, what about Chromium (which is the same software but without Google’s special proprietary additions)? (Maybe I shouldn’t ask, because I do already have Chrome installed, but this might be relevant to some other Linux users.)
I believe chromium works. (I’d have to dig through some Facebook messenger chats to find the answer but I remember it coming up and pretty sure the answer was yes)
Yeah, I expect Chromium-based browsers will have a good chance of just working, but we will have no resource margin for properly testing anything but Chrome. (I also sort of expect that the kind of person who uses an uncommon browser will be the kind of person to try it anyway.)

I live in such a tech (especially FOSS) bubble that I feel sad faced with the reality that anything other than Chrome counts as an “uncommon browser”.
(Although, checking the stats, it looks like even on desktop, Chrome’s browser share is only around 65%, which isn’t as monopolistically high as I expected.)
(PS: this isn’t meant to be a criticism of your decision at all, to be clear.)
