I use Firefox at home and on my phone. I still use chrome at work because of habit and because that's what most users use. Some of the other guys use Firefox anyway. Its dev tools seem fine.

I switched to Firefox and using DDG as my search engine about 2m ago and I'll be honest I really don't care for it. I'm trying my best but I use my phone for 100% of my browsing and not being able to set a home page sucks and with DDG searching for stuff takes significantly longer to get answers with. I search for a ton of stuff that I just need a quick answer to that when searching for Google would just show the answer instead of needing to open links and such. I'm giving it a bit more time but I'll probably end up back with chrome.
It's not an easy transition. My partner works for DDG and I still don't use it all the time. To their credit they are working to improve things but it's a small team (comparatively). Their browser has some good features like app tracking protection just from having it installed and quick throwaway email support but isn't quite up to Firefox's standard (yet).
