Of course, Firefox also encrypts passwords but additionally those encrypted passwords can be shared with my Firefox installed on other operating systems including Android. I did use Chromium for about two months this year. I've switched back to Firefox as it better supports having large numbers of tabs and I believe Firefox's AwesomeBar is far more useful than Chromium's Omnibar. By far more useful, I mean Firefox will show results from my browsing history but Chromium assumes I want to search Google instead and won't even show me some history results unless I visit those sites a lot more or bookmark them.
