I'm avoiding Chrome-based browsers as much as possible. I don't think monocultures are a good idea.

I tend not to install browsers and other important software from the internet. Is this packaged by any major distro ? What are the blockers ? Non-free bits, analytics etc. ? Honestly, I wouldn't pick a browswer unless it's packaged by fedora/debian.
