Do you use Twitch? I'm interested in Firefox but twitch for me is pretty problematic, it seems to have a lot of issues with remaining connected to twitch chat.

Oh also twitch clips and twitch vods are both extremely broken in Firefox and have been that way for years 😓

Another big missing Firefox feature is the ability to just right click a page and translate. I use this all the time in chrome.

Also I really dislike how Firefox has this weird keyboard shortcut that I don't think can be disabled: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1425650 it's been a while since Ive looked around for this issue and it seems some people have a workaround so I should try that. But this bug is incredibly frustrating for me whenever I use Firefox.

I use twitch actively and faced some video playback issues once. Other than that it has been a smooth experience for me in live streams and VODs.

Dang, yeah I keep trying to come back to Firefox and I think I could manage it outside of the things above.
