It's never been a better time to switch to Firefox (www.androidpolice.com)

• Firefox offers better privacy and security than Chrome, with upcoming support for 200 new add-ons. • While Chrome dominates, Firefox gains ground with user-friendly browsing experience and open-source model. • Mozilla's focus on user privacy and transparency challenges Google's ad-centric approach, making Firefox a viable alternative.

What sucks about Firefox for Android? It's been nothing but good to me for years.

It seems quite a bit slower, tbh. I'm a steadfast Firefox mobile user for several years now, it's gotten better.

Chromium is definitely faster, but I don't care. Firefox respects my privacy and has actually useful add-ons.

I'll take the speed penalty if it means never seeing malicious ads.

Yep. You just get used to it. Also, I'm still on a pixel 3 so.. processing power etc might've come quite a ways since.
