Firefox has the advantages and disadvantages of engine independence. It can be pushed even further than Brave in terms of "privacy hardness" but also has the downsides. Web developers really only test their sites for Chromium and WebKit, Firefox's Gecko engine is kinda an afterthought.
I keep trying to switch back to firefox every now and again because of the Ublock Origin support. But every time I do switch to firefox it lasts like 3 days and I immediately go back to a chrome based browser. Firefox just sucks. I love the idea behind it and the competition to chrome. But it just sucks. The performance is fucking terrible.
Firefox need to survive and secure funding and the way they get it isn't as sinister as some suggest. It does feel like there is an active campaign to discredit it, and is always the same reasons and the same debate every time. I've used Firefox for years and it's been great and consistent for a long time.
Firefox also allows its sync feature to integrated in any browser that means firefox sync can be integrated in chromium itself. Firefox also has better GPU rendering software called webrender which is based on servo experimental browser a rust based experimental browser made by Mozilla themselves.

Internet Explorer. I. Can't. Get. Enough. Much. Features. 😂😂😂😂
Firefox reliability and performance is worse than a few years ago. Minutes of disk I/O at startup, and occasional hangs when keyboard events are no longer being processed, are normal parts of Firefox underperformance today.
As much as I love Firefox and use it on all my computers, their iOS app is really behind. Firefox Focus is an exception though as the ad and content blocking is great there. But the regular Firefox app is unusable imo. You're better off using AdGuard Pro with Safari, then Firefox Focus for all disposable web browsing.
I personally prefer Firefox over Brave simply because they both do the same thing, but Firefox is not a Chrome clone and it has decent social values as an organization that I personally support. If you are looking for best browser for power consumption then Edge is by far the most efficient on Windows, Safari on macOS and Firefox on Linux.
Hey fellow privacy enthusiasts, I've recently delved into enhancing my Firefox browser for maximum privacy, and I've already got uBlock Origin installed, switched to DuckDuckGo as my default search engine, and tweaked some configurations based on suggestions I found here on Reddit.
