Firefox isn't just faster than Chrome, it also
- has better Privacy options
- has more design choices
- has generally about the same amound of features (if not more)
- is easier to set up than Chrome (And you can just import your old bookmarks)
- has more search engines (some like ecosia are pre-set but you can literally remove them and add and your own, like amazon, youtube, dictionaries... )
- is a very cool browser
