I'm curious what you notice is missing in terms of feature parity. I'm mostly a back-end developer (not diving into devtools very often) and switched a year ago. I'm much happier and haven't looked back.

I just want support for APIs, mainly. I get websites from time to time that just refuse to load. E.g.

* blank pages when trying to load an imgur gallery on v68 (esr).

* image uploading not working right on instagram and various other sites, either producing blank images or ones with weird lines.

* several teleconferencing / video meeting websites just don't work properly, whether it's not detecting hardware properly, etc

I have to keep chromium installed so I can use these sites properly.

Please file bugs for these. Also, to the author of this comment: please file bugs for these. (I work for Mozilla and yet I'm pretty lazy about bothering to file these.)

Can I just say, for the record, thank you for the work you and all the devs put into Firefox.

This kind of problem also happens when developers only test on Chrome. Or if they are using Chrome-specific features and don’t properly handle failover.
