I'm still using Firefox and loving it actually. Other browser engines don't support "zoom text only" anymore so my options are limited. And to my knowledge, there's nothing as good as uBlock Origin for those webkit/blink based browsers...

Yes, Firefox constantly introduces new degradation in UX but so far they always offer opt-out mechanisms for even the most obscure things...

Ublock and not being Google are Firefox's killer features for me.
The <Tree Style Tabs> extension is what's keeping me on Firefox atm.
I’m using Zen which is based on Firefox and I have been enjoying the experience
My lifetime browser journey on x86: Netscape → Internet Explorer → Firefox → Chrome → Firefox.

I switched to Chrome because it’s fast. I switched away because of Manifest v3. I’ve been back on Firefox for about six months now. It’s fine and very impressive give its resources relative to the market leader, but it still lags behind in speed. It’s not even entirely their fault, as so much of the web is now optimized specifically for Chrome, but it is noticeable to me.

Might I also suggest the Firefox addon "Container Traffic Control" - A Firefox addon I built to make it even easier to use Containers

When you start to use Containers (feature the Author of the article talks about), you'll start to want a little more control in how the containers open especially for sites that you allow on more than one container

I switched to Firefox after Chrome stopped supporting uBlock Origin, for all the slights I've seen on HN lately with the direction of the product I've been very happy. No regrets.
