Genuinely asking: Why do you think Firefox is outperforming Chrome / Safari in your opinion?

Not GP, but Firefox runs on every OS I use, Safari does not. Chrome maybe does, but I doubt it.

There are no Chrome builds for Linux on ARM, for instance. (There might be Chromium builds but that won't have the proprietary Google stuff like account sync.)

Firefox mobile allows me to use uBlock Origin. That alone for me is worth more than any other browser features combined.

Now, if I can find how to make it stop opening a new tab every time I enter an URL in the address bar instead of reusing the current tab, the experience would be blissful.

Settings > General > Tabs > Open links in tabs instead of new windows

Is this what you're after?
