It depends on what websites you frequent. The vast majority work fine (though they are still heavily optimized for Chrome and not much else), but there are some exceptions like publishers of educational material or other websites with overzealous ideas of web based DRM. I’ve seen some banners that straight up tell you “You need to upgrade to a proper browser” and then link to the Chrome installer…
Comment on Anon doesn't like any web browsers

Yeah, its not that the entire website won’t work, it’ll be some vital part of it.
Various Federal and State and Local government websites will have a captcha that just doesn’t load, or have a search map or filter system that bugs out and doesn’t work.
Happens with a good number of slapdash apartment websites too, and some smaller businesses.
Theres a few things I have to regularly use that just do not actually work on Firefox so I have to keep Chrome around… =(

Government websites also seem to like locking into either Chrome or Edge

Apple Business Manager and JAMF both will refuse to work in Firefox for me. GoDaddy frequently complains too.

Only crappy websites cause problems, and unless it’s something you really need, why bother?
