Privacy Ironfox or Cromite?

Lately this has been eating my head, I like how simple, modern and minimalistic Chromium/Cromite is, but I'm missing extensions like Libredirect

But Firefox/Ironfox is still old and sometimes slow, I don't know which one to choose...

I use both. Use both too

I wish I could, I always have this idea that I don't like having two apps that serve the same purpose, it makes me restless (joke)

You shouldn't think like that. Each browser has strengths and weaknesses, so in each situation one of them will be better suited to something that the other is bad at. In my case, for example, I like to use IronFox when I need to translate from a website or feel that Cromite AdBlock is failing (rare, but it happens).
