      They might simply prefer it, or be in an environment where they have no choice (e.g. office, education).

      I’m a stubborn Firefox user but I have to say, this feels a little aggressive and not at all likely to convince anyone to switch.

        So you’re saying they’d be allowed to sideload a discontinued chrome extension onto their work laptop but not allowed to download another legitimate browser? Yea…not buying it. Same with an educational setting. Pretty sure the person I reaponded to just simply is used to Chrome and doesn’t want change (which I do understand.)
