> People flocked from Firefox to Chrome because it was better. This part isn’t entirely true. One large and influential reason why people switched to Chrome was because every Google search result page and many other pages on Google properties heavily and prominently advertised Chrome. Chrome was also bundled with some other third party software. Chrome may have been better in its initial years than Firefox, but that wasn’t the main trigger for people to switch. For most people, the default browser installed with their OS is what they’d use unless they’re sold another browser or they know that another browser is what works for them.
