For a while Netflix didn't support 1080p on browsers other than Edge on Windows or Safari on Mac. This has changed somewhat but they still reserve their resolution content for their "blessed" OS/browser combinations

It's not just Netflix. It is also FaceTime calls for Firefox. This is the reason why Netflix limits Firefox.
