I've always been pragmatic about my browser choice, not prioritizing performance but rather security, configurability and open source contribution. So I used Firefox since the very first Phoenix beta because I came from using the Mozilla browser.
Only for a short while in the early 00s my poor laptop couldn't runt FF with 256M RAM so I had to use Opera. I had to enter PF rules to make the stupid ads in the UI disappear. But within probably 2 years I had a new laptop and was back with FF.
The main sell in the early 00s was that afaik noscript could not function in Chrome or Opera due to the design of its web plugins, so FF pretty much had a monopoly of the paranoid like me.
And by now I just feel that any privacy enhancements can be done with a custom user.js so I see no reason for any other browser than the upstream FF.
