I use Firefox for dev'ing on the html5 engine as it tends to be at the 
forefront of 'what is to come' and also I find it's dev console somehow more 
responsive and 'better' than Chrome's and Safari's when dealing with huge blob 
of JS that the html5 engine is.

For everything else I use Chrome.

In all fairness to the Mozilla crew they are currently rewriting the core of 
FireFox in Rust (the Servo project). In fact Rust has been developed to do that.

When that is done we can fully expect that FireFox will be the most secure 
browser (at least as far as the bounds of the layout engine / JS engine goes) 
when evaluated from the point of view of having any exploitable vulnerabilities 
caused by coding errors (as you can't make such errors in Rust).

So if FireFox itself is going through a bit of a end-user low point it is 
likely in part to that (and the division of resources they must be facing).

Warmest Regards,

Mark
