I switched to Firefox for ethical reasons 10 years ago. Now I use it because there really isn't a good alternative for it. It's developer friendly, customizable, doesn't use chromium, and I like the look and feel of it. There isn't anything you need to trade it for.

There isn’t a viable alternative and that goes to show you how ducked things are

It's amazing for customizability, no other major browser even comes close. For privacy it's a bit better than chrome but other browsers like brave probably would do the same, the main reason I love it is that it's not chromium. I don't like how powerful google has gotten and how much control they have over the internet and it's standards.
