Magic Lasso suggests that Chrome might be the new IE (www.magiclasso.co)

Bloated and complacent, Chrome might be on the path to playing the same role as IE was playing 15 years ago, shunned by developers and technologically inferior to other browsers.

Chromium does do the EEE from Microsoft. (Embrace, extend, extinguish) Last time I checked web Bluetooth and web USB were Chromium only because they aren't standard.

Also Chromium often writes the standard since they control the browser. Jpeg XL and Mv3 ring a bell?

I don't think it is quite fair to call them IE but Chromium isn't good
