I use Firefox, but not because it's more polished than Chrome. It's not.
A small thing that annoys me: ctrl/cmd + click on bookmark doesn't behave like the same click on a web page (opening in the background). There are changes that can be made to about:config, but it's a mess, behaviour is different between a bookmark and bookmark folders, sometimes it switches you to the new tab, etc.
I've also noticed that JS performance isn't as good on some sites. For example, the hash step on VirusTotal takes way longer for larger files on Firefox than it does on Chrome.
The messy profile switch is also annoying, especially when they've supported the feature for years. And no, containers are not a replacement for profiles.
So I agree that Firefox needs to improve. The average user won't use it just because it supports the "open web"... do they even know what that means?
