Past experience where they sucked it up. I used to be a Firefox apostle spreading the good word, then they start getting worse when chrome was getting hot. And it’s been so easy to stay on chrome with no issues over the past 12 years that I haven’t had any inkling to move back. There was a hard minute where Firefox sold out and shared data, sold it, and just wasn’t great.
I’ve been using primarily LibreWolf for almost a year and have not had any trouble using just Firefox based browsers for over three years. (Before then I needed Chromium for M$ teams occasionally)
And honestly at this point every browser pretty much out there shows data one way or another. And for a good hard minute Firefox was notoriously selling data because they were bleeding dry on their foundation and they needed to earn money so they decided to sell user data. At that time Chrome was much more secure and they don’t necessarily sell data as opposed to sharing data with themselves.
Any particular technical reason?

Isn’t Chrome the one known for sharing data?
