With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

Firefox had multiple full rewrites because it was losing marketshare due to performance. They market this as quantum and they are very up front about it.

I’m glad your experience with firefox has been perfect for decades. Doesn’t mean I’m wrong.

I never said it was perfect, I said your “weird, buggy, freezing mess” assessment didn’t align with most people’s experience.

I remember the quantum rewrite, that was 6 years ago, not terribly relevant today.

I also don’t blame Firefox for Google screwing with non-chrome browsers. We saw the same thing 20 years ago with IE.
