I think it's because afterall style matters, the chrome-ish UI is more appealing to most people in comparison to the old-classic firefox's.

For the times you want to go outside while sitting on your chair in front of your computer ?

It's better, in my opinion, as it loads the website specified and use the website's search tool directly.
Give it a try, go on DDG and type !w to search on wikipedia.

DDG is a nice search engine for simple research, but I don't use it as much for its search purpose as for its !bang utility.
Being able to search on almost any website by adding a simple keyword is a real plus and I will go even further and say that sometimes it accelerates the search process (say you know you want to search on wikipedia for instance).
However, I have to admit that most of the times I end up searching on google :)

It's a nice reader really, but i don't want to have to install an extension just because.

Well, I'm going to get into the work of a real life programmer in a year or so, finishing my degree.
Quite frankly, I wouldn't want to be sitting in front of a desktop for 33 years of my own life. Not to criticize you or anything.
But coding my entire life, just doesn't feel right, well as of today and the classic cubicle/desk/chair environnement, maybe I didn't pick the right job, it just feels like a very individualistic/selfish job unless maybe your stuff is open-sourced. How much do you feel you contribute to the society , for example ?
Then again, I'm just starting in the domain, talking from 1 year of work experience and 3 of school experience.

Almost the same here, I like Slashdot as much as HN for the content they bring to me and yes, the maturity (something very important on the web).
However, i can't get myself around their interface, i don't understand it/don't like it, i feel like their lacking a designer or something... in comparison with HN.
So, I spend less time on it, and didn't create an account or anything, eventhough i'd like to...their UI just doesn't feel right.
