Google has a very large share of developers' minds. They have a large network of "developer advocates" whose only job is to promote Google and Chrome under the guise of promoting web standards. And, of course, these "web advocates" will often go out of their way to vilify other browsers. They own web.dev where they push out propaganda pieces and present their own work as fait accompli often without as much as mentioning that no, these are not standards. Coupled with the fact that Chrome is actually the most dev-friendly browser, and you have huge swaths of dev community lapping up whatever Chrome throws over the wall without a single second thought.
