I for one am looking for decent replacement for firefox for at least 5 years (no, do not suggest chrome, or google anything, please), still without success. The bizarre with Firefox started shortly after a guy I know (as undergraduate student in our Department) became production director of Mozilla Foundation. Not that I'm saying he is to blame, but what I know about him lies exactly in what I observe happening with firefox (to add to what you mentioned: rushing "release" after "release" without decent debugging...).
What about palemoon? I've been using it on CentOS-7.x for awhlie. It accepts most firefox plugins and works quite well.
Thanks Scott! Palemoon sounds really promising. I even vaguely remember someone mentioned it to me a while ago (you?). It fell off my attention probably because my main workstation is FreeBSD (and such is my laptop). But I'm sure, I will have no problem building palemoon. So, few months from now most likely I will have it s my main browser (if so I probably will volunteer to maintain palemoon FreeBSD port, unless someone else does).
Thanks a lot!
