#Firefox doesn't need any new features to be more attractive for users, it just needs to make CSS theming more accessible

Maybe start rendering pages right?
Nah, get chromium and web devs to adopt web standards
When chromium is 99% of what people are using for browsing, it IS the web standard. That's the whole point of telling people to get the fuck off of it. Are you not old enough to remember IE4 and ActiveX?
I don't test my stuff on Firefox as a Firefox user. Don't have time for the weirdos. My users are on Chrome. It works if and only if it works on Chromium. That's the reality.
what pages dont render right though?
For me it's anything like excalidraw or something like Google sheets. They work fine until I change tabs and come back then it's blank. But if I move the arrow keys or scroll wheel then every comes in and out of existence or stays on the screen even if I select another sheet until I close and reopen the site. But I never noticed this issue before moving to Linux so maybe it's an issue on my machine
Idk for sure, but if excalidraw uses canvas then there are a lot more possible machine/OS specific problems that come up. Web browser features that hand tasks off to the GPU have gotten a lot better over recent years but there are still oddities like max shaders for a specific browser/OS/GPU combo that'll lead to some funny behavior.
ok so if its being passed on to the GPU then that actually makes me think its that. I bought this GPU used from a buddy and was having issue's with my wife's machine playing GTA5, I thought the GPU just couldnt handle it but maybe it has an issue
ive never noticed anything like that, so yeah, its probably something related to your OS

Most of the time its the fault of the developer if a page only works in chrome.
