I don’t think there is one. Chrome got big bc it was radically different than IE and Firefox jumped on the lightweight trend far too late.

- lxgr 3y agoI’m pretty sure the billions of marketing budget (for a while there was a Chrome billboard on every other bus stop in my city), aggressively installing it as part of Windows freeware etc. has at least as much to do with its popularity. Maybe Chrome got the first 10% of its user base on its merits (that’s how I installed it at least); the next 30% definitely include a lot of people that don’t know what a browser is and got it via some other deal.
