I didn’t even know that is possible.
I am using Firefox now and just to see what happens I dragged one of my favorites to the task bar and it disappeared and now it says it’s pinned to my firefox icon.
I use chrome and firefox. And most times I just leave the tabs with websites I check regularly open. Then when I open my browser again they automatically load.
I wish I could say I don’t user internet explorer at all, but sadly for some sites I still need to use it, for example when I want to pay for something from taobao.
