You are right, Google,Opera and other browser all fork on Chromium. But a really fact is that other browser has slowly disappeared.
I rarely use QQ Browser, UC Broweser,Opera Browser. all of them has new feature, such as download video, speed up visit website. sync data.
I had install IE, Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Edge dev. five browser!! But I only want use one! and uninstall the others. what should I do? can you guess?
I think that other people have the same choice problem.

Browser selection is a matter of choice. No one needs five browsers. Pick a primary browser and a secondary browser for daily use and remove the rest.
I use EdgeHTML as my go-to browser in the Windows 10 environment because it is secure, efficient and has a UI that I like. I use Firefox (and have for a decade) for legal and technical work because it is available on the three OS platforms I use regularly (Android, Linux, Windows) and has the best Reading View available. Firefox is secure, cross-platform, eco-system independent, and has good anti-tracking tools. Firefox is where I keep the bulk of my bookmarks/favorites, keeping only a couple dozen frequently-used favorites in EdgeHTML.
I don't use IE under any circumstances (and, in fact, remove IE from Windows functions/feature, and have encountered no problems at all since that choice became available) because IE is based on legacy technology, with associated privacy/security risks. I don't install or use Google Chrome because Google Chrome is a front-end for Google's data-mining operation, and I want as little to do with Google as possible.
I'm testing Edge Chromium (Dev channel) and will use it as an EdgeHTML replacement if it meets the minimum security/privacy/functionality requirements (discussed in other threads). If and when Edge Chromium is ported to Linux as a flatpak or snap, I'll consider using it as my only browser.
Those are my choices. Yours are up to you.
There is nothing wrong with having choices. The trick is to make choices.
