Firefox is more like Chrome’s little sibling, tagging along and going to all the same places. I wish it would grow up and decide for itself where to go and how to get there. I’m hopeful with the Manifest V3 resistance that this is changing.
It doesn't really have a choice, unfortunately. Any little way that Firefox deviates from Chrome basically just breaks stuff, because Google have successfully forced through their will about every web standard ever.
that's kind of the point of a standard. the problem is when a single stakeholder has such outsize influence.
