Personally it's more about the user interface. Searching history for instance is a mess on Firefox, you got it in collection tab and in history menu. Then if you click on yesterday, it won't sort by the hour at which I browsed it yesterday but at the most recent date so that the sort order is messed up with the stuff you browsed today, and so on, and so on.

You say you're a developer. I had to tweak my company website myself, not knowing anything about css, html, JavaScript, chrome developer tools were intuitive enough.

Firefox developer tools? even years later, now than I understand well website development, I often still can't figure out how to do stuff.

Oh that’s weird! I have been using Firefox dev tools a lot, also for a lot of development, and it worked perfectly, and to me it made perfect sense! But maybe it would have been even easier on Chrome, haha

Maybe it depends what you are most used to. But personally I started completely fresh, tried both and chrome was more intuitive. At least as much as a développer tool can be to a non développer
