I suspect something else is going on there. I made that switch years ago and haven't found a site that doesn't play nice with Firefox in that time.

A sidebar on some service's website wouldn't scroll on Firefox and I got an arrogant response from the devs, basically “we test on Chrome and Safari, use a mainstream browser”. Too bad I didn't know enough HTML back then to recreate the div and report the issue to Mozilla.
