Does anyone have any experience with Firefox on Android?

Yes. It used to suck, say, 10 years ago. My baseline was Youtube and Reddit (back then, okay?) Could I watch Youtube videos the same way as with Chrome or Android browser? No? Then, not ready. Did i.reddit.com open fine? No? Not ready.

Then it happened. And I switched and it has been wonderful ever since.

The only thing that I miss is the "pull down page to reload" gesture [EDIT: THANK YOU ALL! I'VE ENABLED IT - GREAT!!!!]. ~~Not sure why Firefox hasn't implemented that yet. Patents?~~ And also, when a video is in an iframe, it won't respect the "block autoplay" feature. The rest is dandy.

You can enable the refresh gesture in the settings in Firefox
