HID support? We browsing the web with a game controller now?

You can flash a firmware of your phone though google chrome if you want. GrapheneOS even suggests to do it this way.

You can visit controller test websites and check your controllers.

Not sure about this one but technically you can play games through game streaming services in your browser. No additional software needed.

HID API is a cool feature ngl. But I still use FF only.

Yech. Seems like this should be a feature of the OS.

I prefer a WebUI configuration app for mice, controllers, and other devices with firmware-level settings to installed crapware that only runs on Windows (and poorly). I use Ungoogled Chromium exclusively for the HID webapps. It's a neat part of the "web app framework" side of the modern browser that is almost totally irrelevant to the "browser" side.
