For Firefox to succeed, it has to differentiate. There are two meaningful ways it does, or will do, in the near future: 1. Mobile extensions: that's a unique value prop 2. Fight for the user: manifest v3, web environment integrity, and whatever comes next are degradations in user experience, and following a different path puts FF apart |

The users who should care the most, such as the HN crowd, overwhelmingly have voted and the consensus is we read some synthetic benchmarks where Chrome is faster, and we are comfortable trading our freedoms away for that.
Everybody has a price.
It's just depressing that ours was so cheap.
(Not me personally. I would use FF even if it was worse, but it performs identically to Chrome for me. I don't understand what people are even doing with their f'ing web browsers that gets them into these pathological poor performance states with FF.)
