I've stuck with Firefox over Chrome because I don't want Google to win the browser. But with most of the signs and some news out of the Mozilla camp having not been good lately, each piece of news nibbles at my ear just a little bit more.

Funny, that. I have been hearing the opposite kind of signs and news :)

I guess it's a matter of perspective (and of which HN headlines attract your attention :) )

I was considering moving from Firefox to Chrome, but with Firefox's recent performance improvements, I no longer see any reason to. The one benefit which Chrome had (performance), I no longer see. I like that Chrome exists, because it pushes Firefox to be better.
I've been using Chrome for Mac ever since it was in early, buggy developer builds. I was using Safari before that, but only because Firefox on OS X sucks.

For Windows, on the otherhand, I love Firefox so much. I do fine it's performance and UI so much better. Chrome sucks with lots of tabs open and the UI just bores me.

As pointed out in a different comment, Chrome has over four times as many open bug reports.
What examples from the Mozilla camp not been good?
