It's kinda interesting that some of the younger amongst us might have only ever known Chrome through the lens of its meme-like reputation for being a big fat hog.

Because when it was originally released like 15 years ago, the pitch/consensus were the exact opposite of that, i.e. ultra clean and efficient.

As was Firefox (originally Pheonix, then Firebird), which was the ultra clean and efficient version of Mozilla. It was crazy how much better it was compared to IE6. It just didn't have a monopoly and anti-competitive marketing behind it like Chrome and IE did.
