It’s time to give Firefox another chance

Disagreed. I might have 3GB of RAM on this phone, but the browser(s) often get moved out of RAM. It's slower to start than Chrome/Brave. Cold-boot performance matters. I keep Firefox Beta around, and just checked, it's still almost twice as slow as Brave in a adhoc cold start test.

I'm not sure what you're disagreeing with, I was specifically responding to the "adds another three clicks" thing

I see. I thought you meant that as a default browser, there would be less chance for it to be swapped out, and therefore it would be sluggish.
