Firefox/Gecko quietly being unsupported by major web brands

It's a lot of little things here and there that I've been noticing getting worse over the years. I notice some buttons not working, JavaScript events not triggering, styles not rendering as they do in WebKit. It's clear that people have stopped testing their websites in Firefox. Everything works perfectly in WebKit browsers though.
YouTube intentionally renders poorly on Firefox. Netflix doesn't work on Firefox.
The story on Firefox Mobile is even worse.

google will be able to use their browser monopoly to dictate web standards
not good, someone needs to make a good browser that people will actually use
brave has some cool ideas, but nobody fucking cares

super cool idea: what if firefox ditches gecko and makes it a privacy-focused webkit browser instead?

When i said Firefox is getting to 5% market share they laughed at me. They didn't appreciate that 5% is the threshold for relevance and web will just decide to ignore it.
