If Firefox integrated with Keychain, it'd probably be my default browser again. I'd happily pay.

Once Keychain got good enough, I transitioned to Safari 98% and dropped 1Password. iCloud syncing is nice too.

Anecdotally, it just seems like a lot of web sites are poorly tested against Safari, so I run into weird stuff. Also, Safari now inevitably abends, seemingly after binging YouTube.

I favor Safari, mostly because of lower power consumption. I have only positive things to say about Firefox. I've always liked it and I've read they keep improving the power stuff. If I ever do front end work again, I'll definitely go back to 50/50.

Leaving gmail is on my to do list. I've just been too lazy to follow thru. I dunno why, but if Mozilla partnered with FastMail, I'd be more motivated. Probably for bragging rights, virtue signaling.

Totally agree. I feel like I trust Safari in terms of privacy as well, and it works so well in the walled garden of iOS/macos. I really hope they get it up to date with the latest web standards, it's a joy to use otherwise.
