Well speaking for me personally, Firefox runs terribly on my Macbook and it would be nice to have an alternative to Chrome.

  this is not my experience, firefox quantum has been always faster and reliable than Chrome on MBP.

    Do you have a newer MBP? I'm running Sierra on a 2013 MBP. I suspect part of my experience is due to Firefox relying more on the GPU than Chrome, and the GPU in this laptop sucks. I haven't experimented with turning off hardware acceleration in FF though.

      yes, late 2017 MBP - ff Quantum does not use GPU on my MBP (when being on battery as well - pretty same performance) - that said, I dont use FF for any graphics heavy workloads - just normal stuff (jira, a few cloud consoles, gerrit etc)

  I have similar problems, Firefox is noticeably slow.

  Nothing wrong with Safari, in my experience.
