Why would Google code for its opponent’s OS first? Not that I use Chrome, anyway. Firefox has had that feature for ages.

The reason is probably really mundane, like the iOS Chrome team and Android Chrome team not working in lockstep or something of the sort. Like the iOS team planned it for 2023 Q4 and the Android team for 2024 Q1

The first thing I do whenever I install anything is to go through the settings. To turn off trackers, analytics and explore the accessibility features.
