I've been using Firefox consistently since the beginning in 2004. And Netscape navigator before that. And I have never had these issues you speak of. I never made the switch to chrome when it was released because I always hated the look of it. Firefox does everything anyone needs to do. I don't understand how some people struggle so much.

I've always wondered what it is that people are doing when they say that FF is too slow or inadequate in some way. But elsewhere in this thread to be found:

There’s only like one notable website I’ve had to use chromium for instead of Firefox.

The website for recalibrating a Google Pixel’s fingerprint sensor. I’ve had to use that website twice, and I just used Microsoft Edge to do it since I can’t uninstall it.

Absolutely wild.

I would use firefox, but youtube is basically unusable on it.

Also wild.
