If it's where your passwords and addons live, switching takes effort. Besides, what is the big advantage of Firefox? Chrome has 65% of the worldwide market share. Firefox does not even have 4 [1]. About half of the stuff I build will literally only ever run in Chrome anyway.
OK, you're one of those noble devs working hard to further entrench the Blink/WebKit monopoly situation. I'm sure its practical right now, but try not to be too short sighted. Sorry for the bitterness, but this infuriates me.
Note: the Chrome-only stuff I mentioned runs in a sandbox environment and will not make any difference to the global market. Public projects will work just fine in FF.
But of all the things I am actively fighting for, like decreasing the emission of greenhouse gases, preserving nature and the furthering of various struggling causes that will truly make a difference, I just can't be bothered to take on this fight as well.
Good for you that you can afford to be furious about something like browser market share. For me that's nowhere near the top of my list. Maybe it will move up some day, but at this time I don't feel the need to raise a banner for it.
What terrible being is locking people into Chrome?
