From the live event web page:

"This stream is best experienced on an iPhone 7 or later, iPad (5th generation or later), or iPod touch (7th generation) using Safari on iOS 12 or later; or a Mac using Safari on macOS Mojave 10.14 or later. Streaming to your TV requires an Apple TV (2nd generation or later) or an AirPlay 2–capable device with the latest Apple TV software. Other platforms "may also be able to access" the stream using recent versions of Chrome, Firefox, or Microsoft Edge (MSE, H.264, and AAC required)."

MAY be able to access? BS, pure BS

It's gorgeous on my Dell XPS 15 running Edge on Windows 11 and either my Dell HD monitor or the laptop HD monitor. Looks great on the wife's Moto Android V10 phone and Chrome browser. It will look the same on Windows and Android as it does an Apple device. The only limits are screen resolution and internet speed.

A more correct statement:

"You are also encouraged to watch the Live Event on Windows and Android using recent versions of Chrome, Firefox, or Microsoft Edge."

Why would Apple do anything to limit their propaganda's availability?

Nope. Purely accurate.

How can Apple speak with certainty about what every user of every
Windows PC or Android device might have for web browsing?

An useless statement.

They want to give people honest expectations?

It was probably the part about being completely honest that flummoxed you.

Idiot. If the browser meets the recent specs it will work.

"An useless" ? Where did you learn English. My Edge browser even flagged the grammar.

It was the part about implying that other platforms might not be able to watch...

An indefinite article before an adjective beginning with a vowel is
normal English grammar...

....in England and Canada.

I have no idea what kind of English you learned.

Which was accurate and honest.

Apple cannot guarantee that every combination of OS and browser on
different platforms will work.

Their statement even carefully notes which version of iOS, macOS and
Safari WILL work.
