I remember when Chrome launched. It was 2008 and I was in my first year of university. People were commonly using Internet Explorer or Firefox back then, with some outliers (I used Opera). Chrome gained popularity very quickly, since it was a lot faster and lighter weight than anything else at the time.
It’s interesting that Chrome has lived long enough to see itself become the bloated browser.

That was clear when they launched their browser
