Yes, Chrome and other Chromium browsers are faster than Firefox, but you probably don't need those speed for personal browsing, like reading hn, blogs, news sites, etc.

These days I use Chrome for work-related purpose only, i.e. for accessing webapps. For webapps, browser speed is absolutely matters so I stick with Chrome for now. But for personal browsing like social media, news, and browsing random stuff on the web, I stick with Firefox on all my devices. I don't use Chrome for personal browsing anymore for years and haven't notice any issue related to performance so far, because all stuff that requires a fast browser are usually work-related (at least on my case).
