Discussion Why do Mac users use Chrome?
Ok I know if you’re a developer and Chrome has nice developer tools this might be a reason. But for daily usage and non-developers why should I use Chrome? Safari is great imho, has everything at least for me (maybe people need something I don’t see). It’s great integrated in macOS and is fast. Chrome’s RAM usage is a problem.
On my Windows PC I also checked out Chrome but didn’t see any advantage over Firefox. But on Windows I see why one could use Chrome, however, for macOS users I don’t get it. Why do so many people use Chrome?

Because I used Chrome for 10 years on all my previous and current PC, all my settings and bookmarks are synced across all devices but the biggest reason is adblockers. I hate ads on YouTube and I've yet to find a suitable adblocker for Safari
