Bought a new Pixel 7 Pro and wanted to use Firefox but scrolling was just so bad, lots of stuttering. Using Brave now and am very happy with it. You have to turn off some sneaky shit initially though.
I think i've only ever used Firefox since i got the internet (2009), but that also makes my reccomendation kinda moot because i haven't used any other browser. How can i say that Firefox is better than Chrome if i've never used Chrome?
Another side effect is that i'm well aware of all the issues Firefox has, since it's all i've ever used, all the browser issues i've had were in Firefox.
Firefox is only a secondary browser to me these days. I've grown tired of it's performance for years because the Mozilla group would rather keep stuffing unnecessary features into the browser and bring about it's own ecosystem that it may be collecting data from itself that nobody may know about than fixing that god damn memory leak.
Chrome is everywhere and everything is built on it or optimized for it.
This browser monoculture stuff will surely bite our asses someday. I just hope Firefox (and its derivatives) would still exist to take chromium refugees when Google show its true color in the future.
I use Firefox, but I do run into a lot of problems with sites not working correctly. Makes me want to switch to Brave occasionally.
I’ve only been using FireFox and Safari for several years now.
I wish FF would natively support text replacement in macOS. This shouldn’t need an extension to accomplish a pretty basic thing.

To say nothing of adblock plus on firefox being able to block ads even on youtube.
