    There is a net effect in browsers and in rendering engines especially.

    The more people use chrome engine (that is pretty much everyone except Firefox) the more web developers support only Chrome because… Cost/layoffs.

    For this reason i make a point in using only FF (except for websites that already don’t work with Geko).

    Monopolies are not good for anyone (especially with current Google attitude)

      Saying “everyone except Firefox” is not accurate. Iceweasel, Pale Moon, Librewolf, etc, they all use the Gecko rendering engine. Are they a fraction of a blip in the ecosystem? Unfortunately, yes.
