I use both, I have noticed some addition speed since upgrade. But this is a leap frog game. Google will jump ahead of Firefox some time next year. Microsoft could also move ahead, but they have been losing the mind share battle.
More concerned how about the changes in net neutrality will effect my ability to surf the net.

I have switched back to Firefox. I have no crashes from Firefox as I had in Chrome and used to have in Firefox prior to Quantum.

I hope so.
IF you are interested in usage history of browsers, you can see the trends here:

The main three browsers, Firefox, Chrome and Edge are all as good or bad as each other, it's all about which you like to use, my wife prefers Firefox and l prefer Chrome. It's hardly a really critical cause of concern.

I switched back to Firefox Quantum a few days ago.
Yesterday it stopped working three times so I'm back to Chrome now.

I don't plan to try it because I like the way Chrome works, and it's tied into all my devices.

Thanks Jerry, I have not looked at Firefox in a long time.

I tried it a few years ago, but preferred Chrome.

My main is Chrome, but I do use Firefox and Edge. I use Cortana for searching more often that Google. The search box in Win 10 searches with Bing. When Win 10 was first issued, the search engine could be selected for Cortana, but Microsoft put a stop to that. I have two monitors. When I use Cortana, the search opens on my 2nd monitor. It's cool, because I may continue with Chrome on my main monitor and have the search results on my 2nd monitor. I find Cortana just as fast as Google.

What I don't like is clicking on a link of some kind and having it open with Edge.
