Popular - no. Essential - yes. Case in point - my bank (top 5 in my country) which uses Chrome plugin for security purposes, you need it to create digital signature. So once a year I HAVE to install Chrome (key expires every year) and then delete it. I've also found at least one payment processor not working in Firefox, my city portal for public transport and several small sites. The worrying thing is the trend - with Firefox share dropping below 10% recently it will be abandoned more and more.
In those cases, have you tried IE instead rather than installing Chrome?
Installing Chrome was strictly needed only for banking plugin. Didn't have a chance to check yet with a new Chrome-Edge but will definitely try it.
