Firefox is in a rough spot. I've been considering switch back to Chrome. On the one hand, Firefox is more secure, more privacy oriented, more respectful of me as a user. On the other hand, I'm a dumb monkey who sees that Chrome simply works _better_ than Firefox on many websites.
Admittedly, flashy new features that keep me on Firefox are probably not actually better than privacy and security, but monkey like shiny.

That's true, but it's kind of a vicious circle situation. The less people use browsers with an engine other than Webkit, the less attention and support those other engines (now mostly Gecko) will receive, both in development of the engine and in writing sites properly supporting the engine.
