The above is evidence of why "personal preferences differ" and "Choice Is Good" should be in everybody's mind before posting an extreme opinion as though it was a statement of fact
While I don't find any browser "horrible" I certainly put Boat below Chrome in my list of favourites. I was a diehard Firefox user on desktop machines but found it pretty awful for my uses on Android - and I need the ability to sync. I tried Chrome for the first time on my desktop PC and was immediately impressed when it imported all my Firefox data (including passwords) and "just worked" - and faster than Firefox on the same platform.
I now use Chrome (or Chromium in some cases) on all devices and platforms and can't imagine going back not having instant access to current bookmarks, recent tabs, passwords, form-filling data, ... on all devices no matter which one was used to make the change. It's a huge productivity advantage for me.
That said, having now used Chrome/Chromium for some months I'd still choose it even without the advantage of sync, it mostly does the things I want in the way I want to do them, unlike most others that force me to go through hoops to do simple things, or clutter the interface with controls and/or menus.
Oh - did I mention I like Chrome?
