Largest marketshare to check for compatibility, while ignoring all the other browsers.

It's almost certainly market share. Easier to just slap a "use chrome" check on it than to spend any dev time supporting the others.

On the other hand, if it works in Firefox, it’s likely to work everywhere else.
I use Firefox for development and then, barring some weird chrome bug, things just work everywhere.

Eco system, email, google account, all bookmarks saved between devices. Where as Firefox you'll need to actively make an account. Chrome also come pre installed on some systems, ive also seen that many installers for random software will offer to install chrome.
Its all subtle manipulation that leads to people using chrome because everyone uses chrome.
Personally I use Firefox based browsers. I font want to support google.
