So, why are users moving away to Chromium-based web browsers or Chrome in particular?
There are a few things that I can think of right off the bat:
- Google Chrome being the default web browser on Android
- Microsoft Edge as the default web browser for Windows (which naturally has a huge marketshare)
- Google.com (the biggest search engine) recommending users to install Google Chrome (which is potentially an anti-competitive behaviour)
- Some web services are exclusive to Chrome-based browsers
In addition to that, there are also a few things that Firefox may have done wrong:
- Constantly breaking the user experience with major overhauls
- Lack of significant performance improvements in the recent years
