I made a Light / Dark mode toggle button for Firefox, Toggley. Available on Mozilla Add-ons.

Hamrobazaar not opening in Firefox
Have any of you faced this? If the website is made to open only in chromium-based browsers, I am planning to report to Webcompat. But before that, I thought I would make sure from others. Any experience or quick fix would be appreciated.

Switching from Chrome to Firefox? Here Are Some Tips
Teams was a classic hellhole for me when I was using Linux. Nowadays it lets you in but Firefox genuinely doesn't support all of the features the Teams site uses. This means certain features are made unavailable to Firefox users. Forcing the user agent makes some of these partially work but they are also still broken so Mozilla doesn't want to enable a user agent override by default and Microsoft doesn't want to enable a feature that only half works.
This GitHub WebCompat issue serves as a good example history https://github.com/webcompat/web-bugs/issues/77892

Their dedicated blog keeps you posted if firefox perf is your interest https://blog.mozilla.org/performance/
If you have a particular website you notice chromium being significantly faster with, for an easy report, there's https://webcompat.com/ - though bugzilla is better than it seems when coming from github issues
