Who pays the bills at Firefox? Google does.
Down where the rubber meets the road, Firefox follows Chrome in the one significant way that matters most to Google --- it refuses to implement strong privacy protections and ad blocking. For a lot of users, this leaves them exposed to exploitative data collection which makes it is no different and no better than Chrome.
This may go a long way toward explaining why it's global market share has fallen to relative insignificance below Opera.
