The absolute number is not that important, the trend is. That's clear even in Mozilla's own data: https://data.firefox.com/dashboard/user-activity https://data.

The absolute number is not that important, the trend is. That's clear even in Mozilla's own data: https://data.firefox.com/dashboard/user-activity https://data.firefox.com/dashboard/user-activity shows they went from 303M monthly active users at the end of Nov. 2017 to 277M this year. This is a serious drop.
- ngokevin 8y agoEven greater in the US, from 50M to 40M.
- nerdbaggy 8y agoNot sure if I trust these metrics They say: "...widely distributed over thousands of websites." https://netmarketshare.com/methodology https://netmarketshare.com/methodology Looking at netmarkshet website and web requests it seems this pulls from gator.io for metrics. Looks like 3k-4k websites have this data which lines up with the previous statment. https://publicwww.com/websites/%22gator.io%22/ https://publicwww.com/websites/%22gator.io%22/
- ngokevin 8y agoHe linked to Mozilla’s own public data set though. I think other data sets corroborate decline. The 9% might even be optimistic.
