I use Firefox since it's release. It was never bad. I don't get all the Chrome users.
I had the crappiest of PCs in 2006 or 2007 with 768MBs of RAM running Windows XP. Funnily enough the reason I switched to Chrome back then was the immense RAM usage of Firefox compared to Chrome back then. With the big rebranding an rerelease of Firefox in 2017? 2018? I came back and haven’t looked back since.
I used it since netscape navigator XD
It has a pretty severe memory leak issue during the period where Chrome siphoned off most of its users.
