WIth all the trouble with Firefox, I'm considering switching to GoogleChrome. How well does NVDA work with that web brouser?

My primary screen reader is NVDA and my primary browser is Chrome and they work well together.

There is no trouble. You can just use the
portable version that is the ESR version. It's a good idea to have more
than one browser available because at times, one browser works better on a site
or does something another browser doesn't do. But switching at this time
is very premature if the only reason is because of the accessibility problems in
the upcoming version. The ESR (extended release) version is current until
June of next year and will receive security updates until then. If you use
the portable ESR version, you can leave the installed version installed and use
the portable version until it becomes evident whether the accessibility problems
will be solved by the time the ESR version is no longer current.
Chrome is pretty accessible these days and browsing is
either as good from an accessibility standpoint or almost as good as with
Firefox. The actual interface isn't as convenient to use and you have to
manually switch between browse mode and forms mode, depending on the
screen-reader, when working with settings and perhaps history.
