its easy to say firefox follows the standards slowly, when google is stuffing the standards with all the ridiculous unnecessary bullshit that have no business in the web standards, because they have the developer capacity to bloat it. when web standards maintainers are mostly google employees.
all the privacy aspects, including the many ways chrome is leaking identifying data that firefox fixes. as a start, you can look at uBlock Origin's wiki page on why can it work better in firefox than in chrome. and this is just a little fraction of the differences.
