Thought I'd never see the day when Firefox would match Chrome on Speedometer.

There's also a few other benchmarks got a sizable boost. https://arewefastyet.com/

Speed almost doesn't matter for me, since Chrome allows ads and Firefox actually lets me use adblockers and privacy badger. The time wasted on ads are way larger than the time spent loading a page.

never thought about it, but I tend to concur

I'm a Firefox user, but doesn't Chrome allow adblockers too? Both uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger are supported extensions on Chrome.
