Firefox is so shit on mobile that it reloads every time I switch to other apps. I once tried to fill up a very long form, and when I tried to look up some information on my notepad app, I switched back to ff it reloaded and all my progress was erased.
It's a bug that has existed for years, and they never bother to fix it.

So I switched to chrome + adblocking DNS on my phone and pc and I never looked back.
edit: Lemmy is becoming circlejerky like Reddit who would have thought. Facts downvoted have you guys even visited the link above it's a widespread issue. My phone is 8gb sd855+ with battery optimization disabled for FF mobile app. This is why I rarely engage.
It was the same for me until I changed phone Now the issue disappeared
That's hardly a solution. It's like when a dog keeps shitting in your house, so you relocate to the other apartment.
They praise FF while easily dismissing major bugs that force users to switch to other browsers using their anecdotal evidence. Yes, FF PC is nice and solid but I mostly browse on my phone nowadays.
