I don't believe that ad blockers modify the user agent, so if you can modify the user agent of FF to emulate Chrome and solve the issue, then that means Chrome users that use ad blockers don't have to deal with the delay and therefore their claim that they aren't punishing FF users his utter horse shit.
I was under the impression Chrome doesn't let you use ad blockers anymore? idk I use ~~arch~~ firefox btw
I thought Chrome was planning to oust ad blockers in 2024. Idk if that's true though, maybe I'm mis-remembering.
I've kinda stuck with Firefox for many years now because I never saw any reason not too. I honestly hardly ever used extensions though (except ad blockers), so maybe there's something I don't understand about any downfalls of Firefox. I just don't see any, especially nowadays. It just works for me, so I never fully switched.
I've tried other browsers, but I just come back to Firefox ever time. It's a comfort at this point
