Out of curiosity, why are you trying to get rid of Firefox?

I dumped Chrome to switch to Firefox a few months ago and haven't really had any problems with it. I miss tab groups on mobile, but that's about it.

Firefox doesn't have native HEVC support. So I switched to Opera because no other browser except for Safari has that feature.

Supposedly Edge has it, but couldn't get it to work on my media server app.

What do you use HEVC support for?

Its a very simple low ressource video server utility that I'm using for easy access at work.

Its basically a stupid low footprint plex-like local web server that uses the browser's internal HEVC support to play and cast to my TV.
