I’m a Firefox user and pretty tech savvy and I really didn’t know it was possible to port my passwords from Google password manager into Firefox. In any case I use LastPass as my password manager, but the point is this isn’t common knowledge for the average person and sounds just like an extra step/hassle. Just trying to be devil’s advocate and answer the “why don’t people just switch” question.

When you install a new browser it is almost always one of the first things you are asked. It’s as simple and easy as a few clicks, which the browser itself guides you through. Let’s not pretend this is some significant hurdle. If people are lazy or stupid, fine, but it’s not a legitimate reason to avoid switching.
