The hatred that Firefox generates in people is strong for some reason. I am not a modern web developer but in talking with some of those who are, they seem to have made some poor choices in the past. Also people hate the CEO's choices. It seems not enough to be "basically the only alternative to Chrome". Like Chrome is Donald Trump and Firefox Hillary Clinton - it's great to offer an alternative but it just was not enough to stand on its own.

I'm typing this from Firefox on Android right now, but at work I absolutely have to stick with using Chrome since Jira and Confluence only work properly with Chrome. Many banking websites likewise. It's not enough to have moral purity - which at least the Mozilla Corporation also lacks (e.g. firing many workers while giving enormous raise to execs, also selling user data) - if the software chooses not to be functional. But by all means, maybe they can give their CEO another huge raise while firing programmers and see how that helps develop the situation further!?
