What pushed me over the edge? Most of my app icons (keep, pulse, calender, whatsapp) stopped opening in their own windows again.
I had to install the PWA extension in Firefox to get that working again, and it's going to be a slight hassle having to copy and paste URLs from all those windows, but I'm tired of fixing the task bar icons.
Could've gone to Edge since it would work out of the box, but I like Firefox. (except for no native PWA support.)
Edit: found I can right click links in the PWA instances and use the send to other device option to open them in my main Firefox window.

The lack of any ad blockers on mobile chrome is what personally made me switch.
Trying to read basically any news article on your phone without an ad blocker is a nearly impossible task these days.

@deersindal I have a paid lifetime subscription to Adguard, so ads aren't a thing on my phone at all, for pretty much any app.
Same here. I've never had an issue with Adguard or any reason not to trust it but because it's a small Russian company dealing with encryption I don't feel comfortable openly recommending it. I personally think it's great and run it everywhere.
@MaxHardwood TIL. Never thought about where Adguard is written.
NextDNS has been working fine for me and it's free.
You can use adblock with chrome on android too.
Go to settings > privacy and security > use secure dns > and enter custom dns provider from adguard or nextdns or whatever you like.
