In my opinion:

  1. Chrome based browsers are pre-installed on Windows and Android.
  2. Chrome based browsers are approximately the same in terms of speed/usability (this was not the case for internet explorer).
    1. And 2. Cause a virtuous cycle where Chrome browsers are optimised for by Devs. Websites are less likely to have bugs for Chrome browsers because of this.

Anacdotally even some non-tech people know that Firefox is better for privacy.
