> What's wrong with Firefox

Speed and bugs. My Firefox crashes on some sites, like 9gag.

And it's very slow to load websites. The latest version of Chrome loads websites instantly! Firefox takes a few seconds!

I use chrome on my work machine and Firefox on my personal machine.

Haven’t ran into breaking bugs with FF (that I can remember), and I don’t notice a meaningful performance difference.

Have been using FF for probably 10-15 years now.

Do you have FF's higher levels of privacy protection enabled? With fingerprinting protection enabled, image uploading breaks. oAuth doesn't seem to work properly on some sites. Enabling encrypted DNS breaks captive portals or private VPNs.

its really easy to configure FF to break the internet.

No bugs to report here, and I use it all the time, and heavily.

No undue burden on the system either, unlike Chrome which gets sluggish and will crash before ff.

I see no reason to abandon ff at this point.

None of these is true. Either you're lying or somthing is wrong with your PC or OS

I use FF as well and it's extremely non-performant on MacOS.

It quickly eats up much of the power usage and a number of websites (especially MS Office/365 related sites) don't render or work correctly.

The former is a FF issue, but the latter is most likely a website to website issue, as most web devs tend to optimize for the Chromium experience.

That can’t possibly be true, Firefox uses rust and rust is blazingly fast.
