        Yep. There’s the occasional rare site that demands chrome. That’s when chromium comes in handy. I can’t think of a single site I use that I’m willing to install chrome for. Your needs are different, though.

        Not quite, in 2018 they did add tracking protection to their list of goals for their Private browsing mode and have implemented features to reduce tracking/fingerprinting/etc while in it. The main focuses though were still the same at the start though: protecting against local data being saved.

        https://wiki.mozilla.org/Private_Browsing

        We target Private Browsing to 3 privacy goals; in a Private Browsing session, Firefox:

        • Doesn’t save the browsing history or display it in the Firefox UI
        • Prevents the session’s data from writing to persistent storage
        • Protects the session’s data from online tracking
