How much do these market share numbers change when filtering for desktop users? My assumptions: 1) most users are on their phones, and 2) most phone users just use the default browser (safari and chrome). Whilst desktop users are more likely to install a browser of choice.
- fleddr 5y agoHave a look yourself: https://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share/desktop/worldwide#monthly-202006-202106 https://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share/desktop/worl... Firefox seems to be at 7% desktop market share. Chrome on desktop has almost 10 times more market share. So I guess that's the browser of choice. OSX, an operating system with a market share of only 15%, delivers desktop Safari, which still has a larger market share than Firefox across ALL desktops. So also on desktops Firefox is losing, and keeps losing: https://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share/desktop/worldwide/#monthly-200901-202106 https://gs.statcounter.com/browser-market-share/desktop/worl... The trend is down, and down only.
- ryantgtg 5y agoThanks! Sure, it’s low and all, but that does seem to backup my assumptions. Personally, I think FF is great. I use it on desktop and I used to use it on Android. Now that I’m using an iPhone, I stick with Safari because there doesn’t seem to be any point in using Firefox for iOS (no addons!).
