Having recently tested the waters of Firefox after using chrome for the last 10 years. Firefox was just a faster, and better experience.
Chrome is handicapped by the need to support Google's ad business. Open-source, and potentially freemium browsers do not have this limitation. Non-google browsers can block most trackers, auto-fill privacy settings to be the best for the customer and hell, maybe even auto-deny cookies for websites that function fine without them.
This makes the internet noticeably faster, but the con is that there is more browser lock-in than before due to features like stored passwords, credit cards, search suggestions and other tedious to enter information.
