I’d largely like to agree. My main issue is as others have said, some websites don’t work on Firefox due to Chrome basically being the standard. It’s annoying. And I do think people should still switch and try their best to stop using Chrome. Because IF we could get to a point where Firefox has a larger audience than it already has, the problem may end up stopping due to developers having more of a need to make sure their stuff is cross compatible with other browsers.

Are you sure? Is there a list of these websites? I've been primarily using FF for a decade and haven't encountered any.

I don’t have any specific list. But I have ran into a few issues with Firefox. (mostly on my IPhone) In my experience Firefox on Mobile is just up to par with Desktop.

Last I checked all browsers on IOS are required by Apple to be basically a reskinned Safari.

Firefox on iOS is Safari under the hood.
