With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.
Aged like fine milk
now
I switched back when I was in college - which is strange because it came out one year after I left. I also remember having to take a class on how to use Google in my first year of college - which gives you a hint how long ago it was.
I might consider it if they ever implement a modern sidebar like the rest of the others.
Chrome just werks
TOR browser is built off of Firefox and is even more private.
I wish FF would natively support text replacement in macOS. This shouldn’t need an extension to accomplish a pretty basic thing.

If you need a Chrome-like or Chromium based browser you can always try the various other versions of Chrome out there. Just about every browser that isn’t FF is based on Chromium now.
I’ve been using Firefox for years.

Technically, Chromium is not a version of Chrome. Chrome is a proprietary browser created by Google. Chromium is an open source browser created and maintained by Google.
Chromium alone is missing a lot of features (even more so if going the ungoogled route). Its not recommended to run standalone, although it will. Best bet of you want a Chromium-based browser is to find a forked version of it. Brave is one that comes to find, as its geared to be better for privacy.
Firefox is also a solid, secure browser. It is backed by Mozilla, which has been a champion of the open source community for years. It’s going to have a different approach to the web since its not backed by an advertising company. The default settings could be better, but I wouldn’t say they’re insecure.

If I were to install this on an Android phone that currently has Firefox and uBlock Origin, will this appear as a second browser app? Or does this overwrite FF? (Yes, I am tech illiterate. )
I don’t think it’s available on android. But if it is, then I would expect it to be it’s own separate app that can coexist with the regular firefox. That’s how it is on PC.
Vivaldi > Chrome
Okay I’m going to step into it. I’ve been liking Vivaldi recently as a browser. Is that screwed too because it’s based on chromium? Or am I safe for now?
What if I told you I always used Firefox… ?
If only Firefox weren’t such a crap dev experience compared to Chrome.
How about Chromium?
