Ublock and not being Google are Firefox's killer features for me.

Same. I tried LibreWolf for a while but as TA mentioned, it required too much tuning. (It also isn't signed on macOS so installing has extra hoops.) I'm on Waterfox now and it's just about right for me.

I like several features of Firefox, particularly containers as the article mentions. But honestly, not being Google would be enough for me all by itself. I have my issues with Google itself, but even if Google was perfect I'd still be opposed to a large Internet content company also having monopoly control over the client side browser experience. That end-to-end control is just too tempting to abuse without some reasonable alternative that people can switch to.
