Firefox because they'll still be able to use uBlock Origin, librewolf, brave (I know, I know but I'm able to block ads with them still), Vivaldi, etc. basically as long as they aren't chrome or edge you should be good.

Oh I thought plenty of options -besides uBlock-. But apparently that was exactly what you wanted to accentuate.

Firefox is so good. It's one of the rare cases where there are literally only upsides and no downsides to switching to it. The only thing I use chromium for is WebGPU stuff, since Firefox doesn't have support for that quite yet.

Firefox does have a weaker sandbox, which is incredibly important from a security perspective since a browser's whole job is to run untrusted code safely. I do still think Firefox is better, just pointing out a flaw.
