I’ve been using it and it’s great, but I find myself going back to chrome a lot because Google seems to intentionally tank the Firefox experience. Also Firefox has an annoying bug where if I go full screen video, the whole app minimizes and I have to re load the page and video.

There are reasons why you should use Firefox browser or its forks (I use Mull browser) with uBlock Origin.

There’s an add on to make Firefox behave like chrome on search so you get the interactive listing with phone numbers/reviews/website etc.

Not all apps respect this and still use its own special in-app browser

URLCheck could be what you’re looking for.
It acts as the default browser but then pops up a window to ask you where to open the link, does it every time. I thought I would be bothered by that part but it’s so much better. You get to choose to open in Firefox private mode even in the in app browser. Links here on lemmy open through Sync (and Connect if I’m not mistaken) open in app on Firefox private mode.
You can also remove trackers from URLs, choose the default app per domain, love it
