Are you just referring to ads not being blocked? A regular dns like quad9 + ublock origin on Firefox has been a consistently great experience for me.

  Probably the responsiveness of things. Firefox is very sensitive to DNS roundtrip time during daily use. A faster response time provides much better experience with it. I guess that ~25% of "Firefox is slow" myth is coming from slow DNS response, if not higher.

    That makes sense. Do you know the reason for Firefox being more sensitive? Is their DNS prefetching not as effective?

      I honestly have no idea. I observe it all the time, and note repeatedly everywhere when the discussion comes up, but never had the time to dig into the code and see how that all works.
