That makes no sense. Of course the average user knows that Edge exists, because it's built into Windows as standard. Hence the normie joke about it just being a downloader for Chrome. People use Chrome because Google have spent the past 15+ years aggressively ramming it down people's throats through massive advertising campaigns, both on their own services and beyond. It's become just the standard internet browser and the average person doesn't care enough about the minutiae of browser differences to switch. Mozilla and Firefox simply cannot compete with Google and Microsoft when it comes to getting Firefox's name out there. They don't have a platform like Google's network of websites or Windows to constantly push adoption. The idea that people pick a browser based on milliseconds of page loading time that's imperceptible outside of a benchmark is nonsense.
