Because competition is a good thing. I personally wouldn't want the fate of web standards solely dictated by Google. Also, I'm not sure where you got that number, but Firefox's market share is well above 4% for most websites.
- chrisper 10y agoI looked here: https://www.netmarketshare.com/browser-market-share.aspx?qprid=2&qpcustomd=0 https://www.netmarketshare.com/browser-market-share.aspx?qpr... It seemed valid, but maybe not. Do you know a better source? EDIT: Others have provided better sources!
- RussianCow 10y agoEach individual version is broken down separately in that chart, so you're looking at the market share for Firefox 49 specifically. The broader number seems to be closer to 11%. Anecdotally, people and organizations that aren't tech-savvy are more likely to use Firefox as well, so it just depends on the target audience.
- azakai 10y agoYou're not reading that link properly, but it's understandable since the link isn't the clearest. A specific version of Firefox has the 4% you mentioned, Firefox 49. Look a little lower down and you'll see Firefox 50 has another 3% on top of that, and so forth.
