Thought I'd never see the day when Firefox would match Chrome on Speedometer.

There's also a few other benchmarks got a sizable boost. https://arewefastyet.com/

Why does anyone use chome, its way worse then any other browser you can install, they put so much junk on it.

Forced to with work.

I utterly hate it. I don't have it on my personal setup or android mobile - been using Firefox for twenty years now, not gonna stop!

Don't you have the option to use the Chromium Edge at your workplace? At least it has better features as compared to Chrome. My employer has all 3 of Chrome, FF & Edge installed but I use Edge over FF at office because they don't allow 3rd party extensions.

What a world we live in where people are recommending what used to be Internet Explorer over Chrome.

To be fair, internet Explorer used to be pretty good some time ago...

Nope, it's completely locked down by IT policy restrictions unfortunately.

I can use portable installs but last time I got found out I got a right bollocking!!

Financial org, so everything is very black and white unfortunately, although I did argue my way into having Notepad++

There's a lot of non-Chrome Chromium browsers.

Not sure if it's still a thing (I use DDG now), but back then when you visited Google on a non-Chrome browser, you would get a recommendation to use Chrome instead.
