I'm all into the "switch firefox on again" and removed my chrome from my quicklaunch. It's fast as a browser should be, and I trust mozilla a lot more than google. Yet, webkit/blink powers today a lot more than google chrome. I think headless mode & nodejs(v8) integration (e.g. nwjs/electron) is still a major missing feature to call it "a browser build for 2017"

Firefox has headless mode. I'm not sure why "use the JS engine from Chrome" is a good requirement for a non-Chrome browser, or what do you mean by "nodejs(v8) integration"?

  probably a backend or binding or whatever they call it for node in the same way ChakraCore from Microsoft can be. https://github.com/nodejs/node-chakracore https://github.com/nodejs/node-chakracore
