The new Gmail, Adwords, and Analytics run horribly slow in FF, so I have a separate Chromium portable installation simply for those pages. It's so annoying that Google only cares how their own products run in Chrome.
I can confirm that Google Ads and G Suite support reps ask you "what browser are you using?" as one of their first queries. The response in my head is always "why the fuck would that matter?" but what comes out of my mouth is usually "Chrome" even when it's Firefox because my issues have never, ever been browser related.
Here's how it should go:
Me: Hey support, feature X isn't working for me.
Google: What browser are you using?
Me: Firefox
Google: Ok, thanks for reporting a bug in our software. We'll address the issue with Firefox and get back to you.

Reminds me of when Microsoft used to optimize it's products for Windows and other OSs were an afterthought...
That might be but I'm using dotnet core and vscode on Linux now and except autocomplete being weaker than I'm used to in Java and config files being a mess, -both of which are true on Windows as well, I haven't found a single thing to complain about.
And while I have stopped trusting MS (again) after their recent browser failure it seems they are very much trying to sell software and services on all platforms.
