Why do people use google chrome?

[jon]

I wouldnt say its a bad browser as theres worse, but theres browsers thats much better in terms of speed,privacy, and appearance.
Do they feel cool because they arent using the default or something?

Idk, i'm probably way too used to Chrome to try anything else.

Because Microsoft Edge is just as bad as Internet Explorer, in my experience.

How dare you talk trash about my boy explorer

[Mossy Snake]

I just switched from Chrome to Firefox and I don't really see a difference outside of less RAM usage.

same, too much of a hassle having to download another browser, deal with re-entering passwords, re-install extensions, import data from other extensions...

Google Chrome was designed and developed by a lead creator of... drum roll please...

"Firefox"

It's actually just an improved version of Firefox with faster parallel downloading streams. Google paid the creator of Firefox to create it for them.

The reason it was created was due to Microsoft (in IE and Edge private mode) blocking Google's Analytics and their anonymous usage data used to improve the Google Search Engine. This is mainly due to Microsoft having "Bing" as their own search engine, which no one uses (including their own staff members).

Google Chrome is Firefox + Enhancements + Performance Tweaks, with "spyware" for anonymous data tracking to continue improving their Google Search Engine results.

Microsoft does the same with their own web-browsers, yet feeding the data to their Bing Search Engine (and not as anonymous by default).

Each web-browser will have it's pros and cons, but it doesn't make it overall bad. Google Chrome does have it's advantages.

- Chromes number one focus is performance, which it does very well. Stream lining the downloading of webpage elements for fast display.

- Chrome allows users to synchronize their bookmarks, history, and settings across all devices with the browser installed by sending and receiving data through a chosen Google Account.

- Chrome also works with the Google Search Engine badware, phishing, malicious website warnings. This warns users when they attempt to visit a site flagged as potentially harmful.

- Chrome sends details about its users to Google through both optional and non-optional user tracking mechanisms. The Omnibox (similar to the address bar) can take IP Address, but most tracking is done anonymously. Omnibox however allows Google smart searching, such as type "659x3420=" or "how many cups are in 2 liters?" in the address bar and google will return the answer results for you directly without needing to going to any website. This otherwise can be disabled to prevent tracking of IP Address.

It's from google

[Chocoroom]

I use Opera, its great since it saves your last visited site(s) and tabs. I know there's an option to save last visited sites, but... Also, Chrome steals your information and sells it off to advertisers getting you to click on their ads.

[Alkaroy]

The best thing of opera is that you can uninstall that crap

just kidding

I've grown too familiar with it to bother with anything else.

[Hextravert]

Because no one has recommended me any better alternatives.
