I suspect that the remaining Firefox users are likely to be quite "sticky". If there are websites that don't work in Firefox (but work in Chrome and Safari), I haven't yet blundered into one. My guess is that those would be mainly corporate intranet sites/apps, which I don't have to deal with.
No platform deploys Firefox by default; you have to deliberately choose it. That is NOT true of Chrome or Edge. I doubt anyone has ever deliberately chosen Edge; you can only get Edge on Windows, where it's the default anyway. And the only people I know that have deliberately chosen Chrome over the OS default are developers.
- zahllos 3y agoSlight nitpick but you can get edge on both Mac and Linux. They package both a deb and an rpm here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/business/download?form=MA13FJ https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/business/download?form=... and it is also available on Mac. The main reason for using this is to run edge on windows subsystem for Linux on windows and wonder if anyone would have predicted that in the year 2000. (I actually have edge installed on some Linux machines as well, but it isn't my main browser except when I need to teams).
