I'm mainly using Firefox on my devices and have zero regrets.

I also enjoyed Vivaldi over the other chromium browsers. Still sticking with FF for now. The only issues I've had are Ms teams not loading, though km assuming that's related to 3rd party cookies ( even though o365 outlook works fine ).

MSteams is a dumpster fire in and of itself though. Even on my Windows pc it crashes when sharing my screen.

I switched mostly too. Cannot say that I have zero regrets, but FF is mostly up to what I need it to be. And where it isn't, there's Vivaldi.

Yeah Firefox on Android sometimes refuses to load tabs and I have to quit and reopen it, it also still feels slow to load search results as well. Even with those flaws, I'm not switching back to Chromium browsers

The Firefox add-ons help out with sticking with FF. I don't think you can use add-ons in chromium browsers.

Ghostery/ABP on my phone is convenient.
