It was all about control. Google the advertising company awakes.

By the way, you chrome users loss many powerful functionalities. Your daily browsing become less secure and more exposed to harmful online advertisement created by google itself. Pop the bubble and wake up. Consider another browser.
Work stuff - primarily Jira and Confluence - has major problems on Firefox, so for that content it is ride or die with whatever browser allows people to get paid.
It would have been really nice if the Firefox devs had chosen to make more improvements to the browser rather than e.g. shove more AI into people's faces, but I don't control their choices, only my own in response.
Umm I use Jira and Confluence on Firefox every day without issue. Not sure what you're talking about. The only time I've ever had to use Chrome in my professional career were certain tools that require chrome dev tools. Otherwise, it's Firefox for everything.
I use firefox at work for everything except for our ansible platform which only allows SSO on Edge for some reason
Nothing is perfect, though. We always have to keep one Chromium browser as a backup when Firefox faces compatibility issues on many websites. You can choose from many, including ungoogled Chromium, Brave, Helium, etc., which respect privacy.
Also, there is an extension called 'Chrome Mask' in Firefox which helps most of the time.
At least Firefox has a disable AI switch, while many other browsers are just forcing it.
The funny(or rather, sad) thing is that if a site doesn't work on firefox is because they use chrome specific shit instead of the standard that was agreed on before chrorium came out, i agree that Mozilla should improve their engine more tho
Yeah, it's complicated. It is most definitely not all their fault... though at least some of it is. We (and they) can only control our own choices.
