    I’m not familiar with Raspbian Jessie,
    As I know, the default browser is Midori, So MM is running on Midori. Am I right?
    I want to use some Chrome-limited-feature, so i want to run MM on Chrome. How can i do that?

      Not an expert here, but I think MM is Electron based, isn’t it?!
      MM acts as a server, so you can connect to it on any browser you wish to. On the same machine use localhost:8080, on other machines the corresponding ip address (AND take care about ip-whitelist). You presumably want to start MM as server-only in this scenario.
