There are two things keeping me using Chrome.

1) Videostreams are way smoother using Chrome, at least on Linux.

2) I've enabled Emacs Input in Gnome. When I enter something in the address bar, both Firefox and Chrome show suggestions for websites below. In Chrome I can type Ctrl+n / Ctrl+p to navigate between the suggestions, because it respects my keyboard schema.

In Firefox this opens new browser windows :( and I've found absolutely no way to change this behaviour.

This is also the reason I use Chromium. I'd switch to Firefox as soon as it supports VA-API on GNU/Linux.

Interesting, multiple streaming platforms did not work on Chromium for me. So I'd have to switch to FF to view them. I now use FF full time

Chromium doesn't include the proprietary Widevine DRM. You can patch it in though, which is what I do.

Are you using Emacs as a window manager?

[mswift42]

No, I'm using gnome-shell which uses mutter as wm.

But using gnome tweaks you can enable Emacs Input, which if you are used to emacs key bindings, is really handy navigating in gnome-terminal or, as mentioned web browser address bars.
