You'll be back man. Trust me. I've tried numerous times to go back to FF, but you enjoy the speed + ridiculous amount of available popular snooping extensions more than anything.

I know you're in a different state of mind atm, but you will be back to Chrome within a couple weeks.

I have an i7 3770K 16GB DDR3 RAM and an SSD - any performance difference I may or may not perceive between the browsers is negligible.

At this point I cannot in good faith support a company such as Google.

In what way is firefox still slower than chrome? Just, IME that hasn't been the case for ages now

I switched back to Firefox because Chrome started feeling slow, and Firefox feels now as fast as Chrome used to. Plus in Firefox I get to use extensions (I know there are some for Chrome, but I could never find ones as good as the ones I've always used on Firefox, for example, It's All Text or pentadactyl,). I bet at some point in the future Chrome might get faster than Firefox again, if so, maybe I'll switch back. If you tried Firefox recently and think Chrome is faster, then keep using it, but if you have an old impression of Firefox, give it a shot again.

Coming back to Firefox from Chromium was a wonderful experience for me. The majority of extensions I used on Chromium were inferior to their Firefox counterparts, due largely to limitations of the extension API. Aside from that, load speeds are fine, the devtools are phenomenal, and everything is great. I actually enjoy using my browser.

AdBlock Plus and Thumbnail Zoom Plus for Firefox are much better than their competition on Chrome

Don't use Thumnail Zoom. Check out a non snooping extension called "imagus"
