I donate to the Mozilla foundation, and I love Firefox a ton. But I can't seem to like the UI by installing a theme, and when I change it to look better the browser slows to a crawl. Does it really matter all that much if I use Chromium?

P.S. To the people from my last post regarding something similar, Firefox was too slow, I'm sorry, but I use Vivaldi instead of Brave because Brendon Eich can suck my dick.

Firefox is faster than Chrome for me. Theme isn't an issue for me, but the thing that took me a long time to get where I like it, is getting rid of all the buttons and UI elements and plugin icons that I didn't want to see all the time to get things streamlined down to where I like them. It did take me a couple months to get everything how I like it, but now when I use chrome, it seems clunky.

Trying to switch tools takes a while to get right and to re-learn. There are some things I don't like about Firefox still, but more I don't like about Chrome.
