What “things in html, css, and js” does Firefox not support that prevents you from using it?
WebGPU has been the biggest one for me, but most sites don’t even use it.
The only thing I've found that Firefox didn't work right with is certain SharePoint features, which unfortunately is a show stopper for me.
Firefox has been slow to roll out some new CSS features. As an example I have been waiting a long time for the has() pseudo-class. TBF it’s behind a flag but the other browsers have had it for a while now. They were also the last browser to roll out container queries.
Although this doesn’t prevent me from using Firefox it does make me unable to use all the newest shiny CSS features when developing websites.
I love Firefox but the slow pace they release features is a bummer. I wish they had more resources to out towards new css featuress
