Firefox then?
Yup.

The containers UI is damn near unusable, they've squeezed so many of those "offers" into the tiny addon manager popup.
I wish Mozilla had management who understood their userbase. But instead they keep pulling this crap which only makes me (and likely most other power users) less likely to use Mozilla branded products.
