Too bad its the browser used by 98% of people, and many webapps will only run in chrome alone so those of us with any brain not using chrome are forced to use it for work.

Which web apps only run in Chrome but not in other Chromium-based browsers?

Quite a few. Autodesk is a big one. A lot of custom apps made for companies only do chrome.
