Rules
While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.
Rules
-
Always be civil and respectful
Don't be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity. -
Don't be a bigot
No form of bigotry will be tolerated. -
Don't post security compromising suggestions
If you do, include an obvious and clear warning. -
Don't post conspiracy theories
Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you're concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources. -
Don't accuse others of shilling
Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate. -
Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you've gotten yours.

I asked a similar question about a year ago on Reddit (which I don't use anymore after I learned how crass management was conducted in the company). I didn't take the time to read your article in depth, but my understanding is that there seems to be an "Firefox Doomsday" article written every year. If I remember correctly, I was pointed to a graph showing the number of users of Firefox over the years, and roughly, the numbers are always increasing. Albeit slowly, but still increasing. I'm not sure what the aim of these articles would be.
I can only speak for myself in saying that Firefox is clearly faster than Chrome. Especially with the fact that I use more than 4 monitors on my system. Every Chromium based application manages multiple monitors horribly and is slow. And there's also the fact that Google seems to want to change Chromium to make it so the viewing of Ads is mandatory (preventing any Ad-Blocker from working on their platform). Plus all the Cookies, Trackers and Surveillance that happens online, Firefox is the clear winner in this race.
