Yes, they unpersoned xo Brendan Eich, but apparently there are now a lot of reasons to use it again. Here is a cacophony of shitlibs discussing the matter:

chrome has always used more memory than firefox

both will scale relative to the amount of ram the system has

I keep 100+ tabs open at all times so this and tab recovery are basically the most important things for me. And Firefox, even pre-quantum, has been much better for this than chrome

Hmm. I recently switched to Chrome because I couldn't take FF's sluggishness anymore. Something has changed?

yes, download the quantum beta. they rewrote it or some shit. new engine.

old FF was sluggish as shit. tbf, so is Chrome although less compared to old FF. new FF blows both out of the water.

Semi-recently, Firefox finally has an architecture that is no longer single-threaded. So yea, it's definitely better (as long as you're using a multi-core CPU)

Only Firefox beta (in the play store), and only Android. IPhone browsers are all required to use the safari engine I believe
