From that source, it looks like the story depends on the region though (for desktop). In order of decreasing use of firefox:
* Europe: Firefox overtook IE in 2011 with ~40%
* Africa: Firefox overtook IE in 2012 with ~40%. It looks like Firefox had the best chance of "crushing it" here.
* South America: Firefox overtook IE in 2015 with 12%. Peak was 32% in 2010
* Asia: Firefox overtook IE in 2016 with ~12%. Peak was 28% in 2011
* Oceana: Firefox overtook IE in 2017 with 12%. Peak was 32% in 2010
* North America: Firefox peaked at 30% in 2009 and was half as common as IE until 2015-2016. It still hasn't overtaken IE
- pier25 8y agoYeah but in most cases that happened during the rise of Chrome which could suggest that Firefox didn't really overtake IE, but IE lost users to Chrome and Firefox happened to lose less users. Another point to reinforce this argument is that in many of those regions Firefox peaked around 2010 and started losing users too.
