There's no winning. Some people use the regular version and complain about the updates, while others use the ESR release and complain that sites that use cutting-edge features don't work properly.
The solution to updates is to use Linux, since then it'll update through your distro's package manager along with your other software.
Chrome does this just fine on windows. It just updates in the background so the only thing you need to do is (re)open chrome and it's done. Firefox doesn't, and waits until you try to launch it to update. On my laptop where I use FF infrequently makes it's startup time about 30 seconds basically every time I open it.
