Yep. There’s the occasional rare site that demands chrome. That’s when chromium comes in handy. I can’t think of a single site I use that I’m willing to install chrome for. Your needs are different, though.

I have no need for those sites either. It was one off thing. I remember it was a COVID pass thing I had to do prior to traveling, AliExpress asked for it couple of times but I only used it sporadically for family members. Stuff like that. But it is a trend am not liking as I did web development during IE6 and Microsoft dominance era and it took us decade+ to get rid of that grip. Am afraid Google's is even stronger.
