Browser-based Viewer

I really appreciate the 'Upgrade to experience more perks than ever – and a shot at the ultimate gaming PC!' information, and your efforts to improve what is already a tremendous experience here in SL. BUT... a) these perks only apply to Premium users... what about us private island owners who don't use Premium? b) and they only offer PC prizes? What about all us Mac users?

Keyboard input doesn't seem to work at all for me. At most, if I hit the up arrow key it will zoom the camera in, but not walk. Typing into a chat window doesn't work, or anything that requires keyboard input.

the icon keep spinning and no way to connect - https://gyazo.com/354af4c1246dd2ca4cb7d9b45c014393

My only way to access SL is through SL Zero, I am one of the users with low hardware, and I have tried to use so many viewers and none of them can run my computer well since the PBR (and with low graphics) the mobile is not an option, at least not if I don't want to fry my mobile, as you can notice, unfortunately, I am not a person with many economic resources but I was a constant and faithful user of SL and I am sure that like me, there are many other users. Every time I try to use SL Zero I always get this message: "Oh no to many people are trying Second Life. Please try again later"...And I have to try for hours! I am aware that SL has to evolve and match up with other virtual worlds, but the fact that this web-based viewer is saturated, speaks of the many users who want to stay connected to SL and that you can retain, so it would be incredible if you could expand access. Likewise, after several attempts yesterday, February 19, for approximately 2 hours I managed to connect and sadly my keyboard did not work, after about 10 or 15 minutes it started to work, so I see that there is still some kind of intermittence in this function. Of course, with this report I am not only speaking for myself, this problem of user saturation in this service speaks volumes about the number of people who want to continue in SL, I think it says a lot about all aspects.

Any and all attempts to use the browser viewer have been met with "Oh no, too many people are trying Second Life. Please try again later." This has been happening for multiple hours now - if users cannot reliably use the browser viewer, how is this a viable lifeline for users on low-end hardware?

I kept having issues getting past the login prompt. It would try to log me in and then say it couldn't start an authentication session. I cleared my Chrome out entirely, cached applications, cookies, the works. Still the same issue. It did work when I used Incognito Mode, but MFA was spotty. Sometimes it worked and logged me in, other times it prompted me for MFA a second time, and other times it prompted me for MFA and just flat out failed.

RLV support should be added. Similar to this request for the mobile app https://feedback.secondlife.com/mobile-features/p/rlv , RLV is used for all kinds of interactions from inventory management (CTS Wardrobe is one popular example) to teleporting, following, etc.

Tried this on iPad Pro M2 in Safari with external keyboard and mouse but it doesn’t recognize input. I can’t get past the 2FA code login as I can’t type or copy/paste the code. What a disappointment. Would’ve loved to use this on my iPad Pro rather than the limited mobile viewer with deformed avatars. If anyone else managed to get this working on iPad, please tell me how!!

Each launch of the browser based viewer is fresh. User preferences don't carry over between sessions. Users should be able to set preferences once, including configuring the toolbar(s) and have those settings persist.

Every text box (searches, chat, etc.) does not receive keys. THis makes impossible to chat or even Just search in inventory. Arrow keys move the camer instead of letting the avatar walk. To walk I need to press ALT+Arrow / ALT+HOME / ALT.PgUp, etc.
