    Performance wise widely depends on the site used. Some sites (notably Google ones) are notorious for implementing anti-competitive behavior, where if their website is visited other than a chromium based browser, it slows down or a functionality stops working.

    I mean its the whole reason why Microsoft switch from Edge Edge HTML to Edge Chromium/Blink.

    The only good reason right now if you want to stick with Chromium based browsers such as Brave is you’re heavily into browser based games as currently Chromium (and it’s older brother, webkit) are the ones that have the best webgl performance, Firefox can do it but not as fast as Chromium and performance impact is very noticeable

      Sometimes, simply changing the user agent string to that of Chrome is enough to make a site work again. For example Street View lags on Firefox, except when identifying as Chrome.
