This question assumes that Chrome is "better". But what does that mean? Faster? Generally no. Uses less memory? No. The core engine is easier to extend? Perhaps in the webkit days.
Chromium ships with the Raspberry Pi but its an optimized version so not a clean comparison.
- chris_f 6y agoI guess that's what I'm wondering. Is there something that I make missing? FF has lost so much ground to Chrome. Does it just come down to Google having significantly better distribution channels vs. a "better" product?
- explorigin 6y agoI think a lot of it comes down to mindshare. Firefox has does some advertisement but what to we call it when we "search the internet"? We "google" something. Google has so much mindshare and they exploit that to push their browser. What is popular is often what is known and available, hardly what is best. IE is only not popular because it was so bad for so long.
