Chromium is the browser that I open a few times a year for websites that don't support Firefox. A few may be a gross over estimate.

    Fair, I just abandon the site. It's their problem not mine.

    It's really seldom, but a few years back there was a government website that only worked with chrome or edge that I had to use. I had one the other night and found a work around. It's a rare occurrence, and usually I can avoid it, but sometimes I have to just suck it up, do the deed, and bail.

    I don't design web apps but I've heard from some that do that firefox occasionally has problems with them, because it relies a lot on caching (actually they used the term "aggressive caching", with a few extra choice words).

    Anyway, usually not a problem. I use edge only for work since it's the default browser and I barely do any actual browsing with it, mostly light app clients. On my own devices, it's been firefox only for years.
