I really want to use Firefox, but feels a bit odd (lemmy.world)

Don't get me wrong, I like Firefox a lot, but needs polishing.

I like -impopular opinion- the Proton UI (aka rounded tabs), containers are great, but has some flaws:

No PWA support
Bookmarks and history panels are unpractical (menus for both options are almost unusable)
A separate window for downloads, managing bookmarks? Really?
Pocket by default?

We need alternatives to Chromium, and Firefox is the "go to" option, but sometimes is disappointing to use it.

I give Mozilla a pass for a lot of stuff that’s… how do I put it?.. let’s say, “quirky” in Firefox. And I’m willing to experience minor inconveniences every now and then knowing that I’m not using a Chromium-based browser.

With this being said, I really (and I mean really) like FF Developer Edition.

Can you expand on what do you like in Developer Edition? Or maybe you have some link with differences?
