My lifetime browser journey on x86: Netscape → Internet Explorer → Firefox → Chrome → Firefox.
I switched to Chrome because it’s fast. I switched away because of Manifest v3. I’ve been back on Firefox for about six months now. It’s fine and very impressive give its resources relative to the market leader, but it still lags behind in speed. It’s not even entirely their fault, as so much of the web is now optimized specifically for Chrome, but it is noticeable to me.
