I switched to Chrome when Firefox became an unstable mess that updated to new versions more often than was worthwhile, and never seemed to stay fully compatible with Flash (at least on the computer I used at the time). Chrome has its own problems, but they pale in comparison to those from Firefox when I left that browser behind.

Firefox, although I don't know why. It has been a mess for years now.

This is my backup browser, for certain HTML5 bullshit that's not enabled on SeaMonkey on XP.

Staying on Firefox v56.0.2 since Quantum isn't really compatible with the theme I like using.

Tried Chrome but wasn't too impressed with how it sucked up system resources and it shrinks multiple tabs into unreadable slivers if you have too many open.

Firefox for now, but I haven't updated and probably need to find a new browser before I get malware.
Fucking ridiculous that it's so much to ask for JUST SECURITY UPDATES AND NOTHING ELSE.

Mozilla, Microsoft, etc... all pull this shit and fuck up user interface for shit and giggles and I'm getting fed up w/ it.

Yeah, that's the version I'm on. So that's the last non-Quantum (ie, not shit) version of FF?

It broke roughly 80% of the existing extensions.

When the one browser used specifically for its ability to be heavily customized loses that ability, what's the point?

Fair enough, but I don't think it's mozilla's responsibility to maintain compatibility with 3rd party extensions. The developers of those extensions have the responsibility to keep up to date if something breaks. Give it time and your extensions, if they are worth a damn, will be updated. I use ublock, noscript, and stylish and they're working fine now.

I'm more curious about the other complaints about the UI changing and being ugly. I am on Linux so it may be different but quantum looks almost exactly the same as the previous version. I actually like it more so I'm just kind of dumbfounded about these complaints.

The backend has been gutted so badly that the needed APIs don't exist for such things as UI tweaks, cookie manipulation, and download management, all of which worked reasonably well in FF56.

Gutted, as in removed completely? Are you sure the API hasn't just changed? If they actually removed those things then that's pretty fucking stupid on Mozilla's part.

Vivaldi. I recently switched from Chrome. I use my TV as a monitor and I didn't like how if I typed it would autofill with sites in my history that I didn't necessarily want other people in my room seeing if you catch my drift :D
Vivaldi has an option to disable that. You can also stack tabs, split your view to have multiple tabs in one window, use Chrome extensions, adjust the default size and scale of things, a download manager, search options and history with f2, and assign mouse gestures to a bunch of different actions. Also no user data is collected by the browser or sent to other parties, including Google. You can also take a snapshot of what you're viewing or adjust it on the fly to a selected area. It's pretty much Chrome, but with more features.
So far so good, for me personally. I've had it for about a month now.

The new one uses a WebExtensions SDK (the same thing used for plugin support in Chrome and Opera), whereas the old one used an Add-Ons SDK. It gets kind of complicated to explain, but basically anything that would change core functionality of the browser is not allowed in WebExtensions (but was allowed in Add-Ons).

In one sense, it is sort of fixing a security loophole. However, it also greatly limits what you can do with plugins.

In that case I guess those complaints are understandable. Luckily none of the extensions I use are broken so I just have no reason to complain. To me it's still the same browser on the surface.
