I used to think the same, but now do all web dev in Firefox. For my purposes it has parity with chrome, and works just as well.

Also means if it works in Firefox it will most likely work in chrome. The opposite was not always true.

Can’t relate at all. In my limited frontend experience, I’ve run into a lot of rendering deferences between WebKit and Blink, and even more between Gecko and Blink. Sometimes the differences are subtle yet break pixel perfection; sometimes the whole layout is broken.
