I've noticed that Firefox has steadily been eating up more and more of my CPU/RAM lately. It's not been significant enough to make me use Chrome, but it is a worrying trend. The main thing i want of a browser is for it to get out of my way. Edge is a little bit worse at this then chrome which is why nobody uses it. There's very little distinguishing browsers, a large part of the reason i continue to use firefox is because i used to use it. The second i find that Chrome has 0.1% less friction, i'll switch.

I would love to hate that feature, but i don't. I kind of like it. It's useful sometimes and easy to ignore if i want. Honestly i would say it enhances my browsing. You can complain that it's often wrong and 2 dimensional and you would be right. But that would be missing the point. Maybe you can complain about secondary effects. I don't know what those would be though. Perhaps that it degrades the overall browser ecosystem and locks you into googles own, but that is moving the goalposts.
