Mozilla working on Firefox Picture in Picture mode
#1
Quote:Like Chrome, Mozilla Firefox is adding a Picture-in-Picture Mode that allows users to pop the video out of the web page in a stay on top frame that they can watch while using other applications.

Google integrated a picture-in-picture mode in the company's Chrome browser in 2018, and several other Chromium-based browsers, such as Vivaldi, support the functionality as well.

Mozilla implemented picture in picture mode functionality in Firefox Nightly already (but partially at this point). Firefox users who run the cutting edge development version of Firefox may use it play videos that are embedded on sites in a smaller window; this looks like the following:
