I just went back to Edge from Firefox. I’ve been a long-time user, but it seems like too many of the sites I use don’t work properly and some not at all. It sucks because I’ve always preferred FF, but I gotta get sh*t done.
That is kind of the result of this negative loop where lazy developers don’t develop with firefox/safari in mind because chrome is already so popular - so users stay on or switch to chrome because the firefox/safari experience is broken.
Supporting other browsers is the best way to get support for other browsers.
That being said I have never had an issue with a major website while using Firefox and any professional worth their salt always consider Firefox and Safari compatibility.
Obviously you’re free to use what you wish but I’m just sharing some information as a software engineer focused on web development.

Can you list one or two sites that don’t work?
When I checked last, https://www.oreillyauto.com/ doesn’t work properly on Firefox. Some websites of small businesses also seem to have trouble.
I use Tor and it loaded fine for me. Might just be you.
For those wondering I live in a heavily censored country
I can definitely see that being an issue.
