The information in https://wiki.mozilla
.org/CA/Revocation_Checking_in_Firefox is largely up to date.
In short, Firefox uses OCSP (either stapled or fetched) to check revocation
for end-entity certificates. It uses a curated list called "OneCRL" to
check revocation for intermediates and roots.
We are actively developing "CRLite", which is essentially a way of
compressing all known revocations into a small dataset that can be
downloaded out-of-band, thus eliminating the privacy and performance issues
with OCSP fetching.
Firefox has not directly used CRLs for revocation for a number of years.
