I've used Firefox as my primary browser since the "Quantum" in 2017. Chrome still feels snappier, but Firefox's Container Tabs is hard for me to imagine losing.

I actually tested this and Firefox is significantly faster in rendering CSS and tables. (Not sure about complex Javascript.)

Chrome's snappiness is mostly UI smoke and mirrors, actual sites load faster for me in Firefox.

Maybe FF should take some tips on those UI "smoke and mirrors". What feels faster is what users are going to go off of. For example, a page that fully loads in 1 second vs a page that incrementally loads in 1.5 seconds - the latter may feel faster because the time to start loading is faster.

Pretty much this, the overall feel of Chrome is snappier and the UI/UX is much better

I'm still not a fan of the latest UI revision on Firefox.. Chrome is able to make me forget there is an UI

I remember switching to Chrome because of a new UI update many years ago (performance too)

If Firefox manage to catch up performance wise, I might give it another try
