with the recent news about the things that were said about Google slowing down Firefox on purpose, are they doing this because they severily dislike Firefox/open source? :c If so, that wouldn’t make a lot of sense!!! Because Google loves open source too. I read they were doing this to stop adblockers, and well if you use Firefox without those, it can work maybe! I use Chromium and Google Chrome on Ubuntu u
Google needs Firefox, it is the only web browser with a different rendering enginge than webkit/blink that has any kind of traction, they need the status quo to remain so they have a competitior and can try and disprove any claims of them having a monopoly.
They need Mozilla to be weak and dependant on them, but still be a reasonable alternative in theory, as long as it works as an argument in court, they are fine with it.
