Is it true that Firefox is not secure on Android? (lemmy.ml)

Hello. I am a Firefox user, and everyone I know tells me that using Firefox on Android is not secure. What are they basing this claim on? I have tried using Chrome, but I always go back to Firefox because it is the only open-source browser that allows me to pin favourites to the home page and because the display of websites adapts very well to the chosen size. Which FOSS browser derived from Chromium allows you to choose your favourite websites on the home page?

I agree with what you've written, which is why I was wondering why people around me tell me that Firefox isn't a secure browser for Android when I mention that I use it. It's the only FOSS browser that allows me to pin my favourite websites to the home screen, and it's the only browser that allows me to install extensions... I'm going to try Fennec to see how it works on Android. Thank you very much.
