Firefox Is Faster
Chrome has long had a reputation for being the speediest browser and Safari has a home-field advantage on macOS. So how does Firefox stack up? Although you may not expect it, the Mozilla browser actually has some key advantages in the performance department when compared to Chrome or Safari.
First off, Firefox is actually likely to be faster than Chrome as of the Firefox Quantum update. Recent versions of Firefox will be on-par or even faster than Chrome on macOS. According to anecdotal user reports, Firefox is even a bit zippier than Safari — and many users claim that it’s able to handle more open tabs than Safari can.
