Firstly, firefox is known for its strong privacy and security features, which is important to me when browsing the web I've tested chrome, brave and firefox regarding their actual ram consumption when opening three different news sites (cnn, fox, huffpost) Just in general, firefox tends to be a lot more private and secure than opera gx firefox is quite a bit more customizable as well (though if we're being honest, most of those customizations are things most people will never touch) in my experience, firefox is a lot less memory intensive for people like me who use a ton of tabs

Firefox is the last major browser standing that has a completely different code base and engine
(i discount safari here not because it shares some code with chromium —it's not chromium based— but because it's not competing on all platforms.) diversity in tech and developer philosophy matters for a healthy browser landscape
The navigation power is also built deep into the underlying engines Firefox is also, still, capable of supporting extensions that are far more powerful than what’s possible in chrome The rise of chrome killed off the commercial viability of a lot of incredible extensions that couldn’t be ported to chrome. Hei hallo, i've been using firefox for about 2 years now and i'm thinking about if i should or shouldn't switch to something else
From what i have seen and interacted with, most of the people either use hardened firefox, librewolf, or waterfox. I don't know why you opened reddit, clicked create, typed the title including (but longer than) firefox download, added a body and then clicked post and decided to wait for a response when me typing firefox download (which is in your title) on duckduckgo gave me the official download link as the first result, but here you go: Firefox has the advantages and disadvantages of engine independence It can be pushed even further than brave in terms of privacy hardness but also has the downsides
Web developers really only test their sites for chromium and webkit, firefox's gecko engine is kinda an afterthought.
I switched to firefox recently so ill try to answer Google services such as gmail and drive These work the exact same on firefox browsers Im using floorp v11 beta which is a fork of firefox that i find to be a little faster, and more customizable, i suggest checking it out
The nice thing about firefox and it's forks, they all use the same sync platform, so i can use any firefox based.
