> Firefox is plain unusable on Android if you don't use an upper-range device.

Interesting one - I generally found it to be the other way for me. Chrome was sluggish on my older phone, but Firefox was faster.

I'd say just plain wrong. My preferred browser on Android is Firefox, but I use Chrome too. It's a three year old $300 phone. Firefox runs much faster Chrome, but I suspect that's only because it has ad blockers.

that's never been my experience.

my Snapdragon 662 phone has never been able to juggle more than one tabs on Firefox without it OOM'ing, while I could on Chromium-based browsers.
