Today I read a lot of complaints about Manifest V3 and Google's monopoly with chromium. And looked at Firefox's market share from early 2024 to now. I've been thinking about how to regain a small market share and fight against chromium's dominance (although it seems impossible). For me and probably many other users, the biggest problem with firefox is its RAM usage. Currently Edge is the browser with the least RAM usage and has about 2% more market share than Firefox. If each Firefox tab was optimized to reduce 100 MB of RAM usage (without using any extensions to help reduce RAM usage), its market share would surpass Edge. What do you think?
