Same, the only thing stopping me from switching is the hassle of porting a custom chrome extension to firefox.


Custom extensions are the easiest: Firefox loads the exact same unpacked extensions Chrome does.

Both follow the WebExtensions-standard, so there’s not really much to “port”, if anything.


With newer versions of firefox you can only temporarily load unpacked extensions. You need to re-add them if you relaunch firefox.
