It's not a difficulty issue It's that lots of us have tried Firefox and don't like it.
Personally I don't use Firefox because it is buggy, is missing critical features, implements some web standards weirdly and has weird user agent styles. The end result is that many websites don't look right and don't work correctly and/or fully
Buggy? Huh.
Interesting. I use Firefox for everything and haven't had any issues. Maybe I'm just not that picky?
They're pretty much just hating to hate or basing themselves on very outdated information, 'missing critical features' is a joke, because if it actually were critical it would've been implemented already (plus firefox is very extensible, with many plugins existing and forks adding specific features), if they actually had a point they maybe would've given a single example.
Weirdly implementing some web standards kinda did apply a bit until a few years ago where all the big browser engine developers got together and pinned down the standard. If something still breaks that probably means the website used some out-of-spec workaround that only works in Chrome. Some things do indeed behave differently between firefox and chrome (an example of my own: file input fields with multiple types, eg allow both video and image are handled differently at least in the mobile apps). Yet again if they had a point maybe an example would've been great.
Weird user agent styles?...?? I'm just confused honestly.
Me too
