Its only killer feature to me is that websites are designed and tested with a Chromium-first attitude. As a regular FF user I might stumble upon a website that’s quite buggy or straight up doesn’t work, which forces me to use Chrome for that specific website. Other than that I don’t really feel like there’s anything, and Edge is currently a better Chrome than Chrome anyway.
EDIT: and for the record, I’m still upset Microsoft didn’t choose FF and willingly increased Google’s grasp

Even then, I expect some of it is the fact I use an obscene number of plug-ins to break most social media sites (to prevent overuse).

- noman-land 4y agoI've been an FF user and developer of many frontends for years and the amount of times I run into serious differences between browsers is somewhere near zero.
- worik 4y ago...in the past decade, for me. It once was a serious problem. No more
