With so many options for Chromium-based browsers, is there a reason why you still use Chrome?

I personally use Edge on desktop and iPhone because I give so much data to Google by using a gmail account that it lightens the load a little bit to use something other than Chrome. It functions the same as far as I see and it runs all the same plugins.

My reason for using chrome is I don't mind it. I think I'm less suspicious of Google than most of HN. They don't allow extensions on mobile though

Not op.

I also use Edge on my Android, it has a built-in adblock plus. I prefer unlock origin, but it's better than nothing.
