Firefox's main problem is Firefox users. Seriously, there's nothing but griping about it but it's pretty much the only browser holding back the rendering engine monopoly (intentionally excluding WebKit).
It's incredible the whining about AI when you can simply turn it off. The speed comparisons make no sense either. Chrome is slightly faster so you should give up your ability to block all ads and let Google abuse you in myriad ways while supporting a virtual monopoly? FFS. Firefox is simply a better browser, hands down. It's a better design and more user friendly than Chrome. I only regret being on Chrome for so long…
I had to stop using firefox because it just wouldn't display youtube videos. disabling adblocking, hardware acceleration, updates, etc. etc. didn't help at all
Am I the one who is crazy and nitpicking here?

If anything, it's the powerusers that disable Firefox's telemetry so that they don't know how the power users use Firefox. (Guiltily raises hand. Although lately I've noticed a ping option, so I left that enabled.)
To be frank, I find that use of analytics as the primary determiner to be incredibly intellectually lazy. They’re being used as a stand-in for deep, holistic thought in product design, user research, 1:1 interviews with users, etc when they shouldn’t be, and it’s making software as a whole much crappier than it needs to be.
What is the next best alternative to throw support behind? I did a very shallow search and the forks of Firefox I found don't appear to be actively maintained.
