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

Lol Firefox has always been good. Like I care about .2s of increased page load speed.

Tbh, they trade blows all the time but I value privacy so I’ve been using Firefox for decades.

Firefox has been and in some cases still is far, far worse than .2s slower, but even not considering that, the reality is that chrome has more support and thus gets more development and attention.

This results in some websites not working properly or at all on Firefox, while this isn’t Firefox’s fault it is a thing nevertheless

I’d be curious to know these sites because I’ve never had an issue with firefox loading sites, or even improperly. I do understand what you’re saying though. I also stick with it because of the privacy “edge” (pun intended) over chrome+variants and I don’t want a browser monopoly. Even though I’m just 1 person, it’s something.

For a while it wasn’t on MacOS that I used for some years. But yeah, right now it’s negligible for anyone to use as an excuse.
