I'm using Firefox on Android - not sure what friction you're referring to here, but the lack of 'reload on pull down when scrolled to top' feature is seriously annoying for me.

Despite this, I stick with Firefox because I want to use it - I can imagine that the vast, vast majority of users who have no opinion on which browser they use simply don't/won't put up with this and just go back to the easier to use Chrome. It's little things like this that make all the difference.

In every other Android app there's no bound on how much scroll momentum you can build up; if you want to zoom to the bottom of a long page, you can keep flicking to go as fast as you want. Firefox mobile adds an obnoxious amount of extra friction that prevents you from going much faster than your finger moves, making scrolling feel like wading through water.

As an aside, I think iOS might have the same behavior, which could be the reason they're doing it, but it goes against the system standard and is completely unbearable for me.

These users would never install Firefox in the first place.
