> I'm a huge proponent of Firefox on desktop, but the new Firefox on mobile is just awful awful awful.

I strongly disagree. There are certainly issues, many of which are a result of the recent redesign, but I still find it a much better experience than Chrome on mobile and I think calling it "awful" is hyperbolic. Here are some examples of why I think FF > Chrome on mobile:

Firefox mobile supports extensions which I consider necessary at this point, such as uBlock Origin.

I can put the address bar at the bottom, where my fingers are.

The reader features makes many websites much easier to read - particularly on mobile.

Chrome defaults to opening things in tab groups now, which I find to be much more finicky to use than normal tabs. Bookmarks are for saving pages long-term, not tabs.
