Wait, what?
They had some iconic ads back in the day. Some examples:
Speed - https://youtu.be/FaNpWJY9SEs
Stability - https://youtu.be/GZRZcKEtHzo
Security - https://youtu.be/ekeRDKxQe1g
Edit: cleaned up the links
Huh, watching this in current year, the "crashed tabs won't crash your browser" one feels like an oddly technical detail to include in a commercial. I guess I'm just so used to it now that it's hard for me to imagine that web browsers weren't always as reliable as they are now.
Also, look, I appreciate your comment, but could you please at least remove the ?si= tracking nonsense from your youtube links?
For everyone else, here are nvidious links:

I'd also like to add, to whomever it may concern, that you can find a userscript to automatically convert youtube links into invidious links, among other things, here.
There's a couple others made by the same guy you may be interested in, like a basic link tracker remover
Thanks for sharing!
People forget but when chrome first came out it was extremely ahead of the competition.
Their chrome and play store ads will forever be seared in my brain.
