1) Firefox is SLOW. I have ~400 tabs open on a Macbook right now in Chrome, Firefox snails around at 30-40 tabs.
2) Firefox dev tools sucked for a long time, compared to Chrome's. Same goes for Safari's dev tools - and don't get me started on the clusterf..k called Internet Explorer... that's why devs drove off to Chrome in the first place and stayed there.

My experience with these browsers (also on a Macbook) is almost exactly opposite. It's amazing how people can use the same things and have such wildly different experiences.
