Chromium has better features, but with google announcing its plan to 'drm the internet' I 'm not sure if it'd be a good idea.

Unless you really like things like CSS Overview and Sleeping Tabs and the intuitive extension bar you should switch to Firefox. It has container tabs and is a lot more resource efficient.

Is it, though? They seem very comparable to me these days.

That, and I'm pretty sure one of the multiple extensions I use to make Youtube watchable has a memory leak, because I do end up having to restart it periodically.

And yeah, I do miss the automatic tab grouping feature, trying to replicate it is such a hassle on Firefox.

Crucially, though, I still main Firefox despite all that, so... I guess that's my vote.

It's an extension, so has nothing really to do with the browser. That's on par with one star reviews on Amazon because the package was delivered damaged.
