Website incompatibility keeps me from using it 100%. Certain websites are simply non-functional except in a Chrome-based browser and I don't have the shits to give to swap only for those sites. I might start the day with Firefox and by the end I'm using Brave.

I switched back to Firefox about 2 years ago, and I've only encountered a few sites that don't work properly.

With the exception of ONE annoying SaaS site I need at work (which I might use a ton for a week then not again for weeks), I've only had to open a site in Chrome/edge maybe once a month. That includes running Firefox on my phone in addition to my work and personal desktop/laptops.

Do some websites refuse to function even with useragent spoofing?

Haven't tried this before. Worth a shot.
