For years Google downgraded people's experience on search, maps, and youtube on mobile if they didn't use Chrome for Android. As a Firefox mobile user, it was very frustrating. I don't use many Google services anymore, but they, seemingly intentionally, were making other browsers feel worse. I wouldn't be surprised if they were doing it in different ways on desktop.
