What is Google Chrome?
Google Chrome is Google's web browser, built on the open-source Chromium project.
Who is it for?
Anyone who wants broad site and extension compatibility, and web developers who need DevTools. A poor fit for people trying to limit the data they send to Google.
What are the alternatives to Google Chrome?
Firefox runs an independent engine; Brave and Vivaldi are Chromium-based and lead on privacy and customisation; Arc, Dia and Zen Browser rethink tabs and layout; Opera bundles extras.
