IE was technically garbage and people eagerly wanted to get away from it as it broke sites. Sites are now mostly built and tested on Chrome. Firefox breaks sites.
All browsers break sites. In the past few months we've had our stuff broken due to bugs in Safari, Chromium and even Firefox. But the situation is nothing like when IE was alive. Webdevelopment is much more pleasant now. If I had to pick a black sheep now, I would say it's Safari, simply because the updates are tied in with OS updates. That's a shame.

i would always tell them to install firefox. this is mostly for developers and tech oriented people who need to keep chrome around
If I need to keep Chrome around for development, I'm not using extensions on it, and I'm only visiting the sites I'm developing.

What has been holding you back so far? It seems strange to me that so many normally quite pro-privacy, pro-FOSS, Google-sceptical people are still using Chrome to this point.
I’m unfortunately handcuffed to google due to gmail, switching seems like a monumental task and google is going to get my personal data whether I have gmail or not from AdWords, etc.
