Do people really care about the engine being used under the hood?

From a user perspective, I see no difference between Blink, Webkit and Gecko. And when there is, it's a website that has only been tested on Blink, or uses features not available elsewhere.



traditionally no, but adblocking on firefox has been traditionally better and chrome(and therefore chromium) is about to break many adblocks


Yes, I care deeply about diversity in the browser land.

Luckily Gecko also performs the best for me.
