I donate to the Mozilla foundation, and I love Firefox a ton. But I can't seem to like the UI by installing a theme, and when I change it to look better the browser slows to a crawl. Does it really matter all that much if I use Chromium?

P.S. To the people from my last post regarding something similar, Firefox was too slow, I'm sorry, but I use Vivaldi instead of Brave because Brendon Eich can suck my dick.

FF is totally broken for me when I try to use anything Google or Cloudflare related for some reason. With cloudflare, I'm in a human verification loop and with Google I get the message "This browser or app may not be secure", in a regular window or private window. This is Ubuntu 22.04. Works fine in chrome. Only browser plug-in I use is KeePassXC, and disabling it doesn't resolve the issue. Disabling pfblocker-ng at my router also did not solve the issue.

While it is important in a sense what you use, you and I are such a miniscule inconsequential part of the equation that it won't matter what you actually end up using

Use what you like instead and dont worry too much about what these hokier than thou doichenozzles wanna force you into usinfg

as much as I like firefox, it runs like crap on Android. Performance is just not quite there (yet)
