Installed firefox yesterday. Nothing really changed or improved. Uninstalled firefox.
Literally was just telling my partner how much better browsing is since switching to Firefox on android. The ability to install extensions period is a huge upgrade, but also there are several available that are fantastic and not features available on chrome. Not sure what you mean about needing extensions to match chrome features. In fact, none of the extensions I've installed are features present in chrome. Plus I can block ads and trackers, activate dark mode everywhere, and use YouTube for audio with my screen off. I am kicking myself for being lazy. On top of giving Google personal data for no reason, I've had a worse browsing experience for years.
For YouTube, check out ReVanced on GitHub
Better yet, check out NewPipe on F-Droid. :^)
Hell yeah! It even performs better for me than either ReVanced or the official YouTube app
I prefer LibreTube =)
Or LibreTube!
