This sparked my curiosity and I wanted to know if my setup would work for this. In recent times, Firefox has been moving rather quickly, adding dependency on these Flatpak portals (even in scenarios where Flatpak is not involved). This is no exception. Access to the camera via pipewire is mediated by the camera portal, an interface of the xdg-desktop-portal.
