I never use a password manager and a tablet so I can’t comment on those, but for everything else, what kind of devices do you have to run into those problems? Even my shitty laptop from 2016 that is on live support can run Firefox without issues. Are yours from the last century or something?
And “FF on Android keeps refreshing pages when changing tabs”? Dude, that’s called resource management, even Brave and Chrome do that if you have 20 tabs opened, you expect a damn phone to be as powerful as a normal average freaking PC?

2018 i7 Zenbook with 24GB of ram. Of course it “runs” Firefox all fine, but it’s just these little things that force me to switch back to Chrome because I encounter small, but key issues which make me unable to continue working in it

I have 8 gigs of ram on my phone so I wouldn’t expect this to happen with just 2 tabs open especially since Chrome does not do that, at least not every time I switch between tabs, even within seconds.
Don’t get me wrong, I understand how shitty it is for Google to monopolise the internet and web market and I would love to be able to permanently switch to Firefox, but let’s stop acting like Firefox is perfect, because it just isn’t. Sure, neither is Chrome, it has its issues beside privacy as well, but all in all performance- and usability-wise Firefox is just inferior.
I have 2 laptops with 8GB of ram each, a PC with 16GB and a phone with 6GB and non of them has problems, I even have 10 tabs open on my phone and non of them refreshes unless I manually do it. I haven’t run into a single issue with FF on any of my devices for my 3 years of using it. Just what kinds of bloatware do you have running in the background to run into those problems?
I switch back and forth between Chrome and Firefox but always end up sticking with Chrome for longer:
I wish I could switch to Firefox

Are you now going to fully troubleshoot their entire computer just so they switch back to Firefox?
