Having switched to Zen Browser, something I miss with Firefox was its stability. I find myself looking up Zen browser bugs and workarounds too much. This is the 2nd or 3rd time I'm downgrading Zen versions due to a bug in the stable version, I never had to do so during my years on Firefox. Devs on Github making an app on their free time have can't spend as long on QA as a multi-mullion dollar organization.

How often do you downgrade Firefox versions

I don't remember ever downgrading a browser (started out on NCSA Mosaic).

Having switched to Zen Browser

Recently tried Zen -- I think it's pretty and shows promise but has a few dealbreakers that preclude my using it as a daily driver. TL;DR: "I slightly prefer the zen UI but not enough to overcome the annoyances. I’ll check back on the project next year if it’s still active."
