470k crashes in a week? Considering how low their market share is, that would suggest every install crashes several times a day... I gotta call bs.

- titaniumtravel 8mo agoBased on what data? According to their reporting they have around 200 Million monthly users, which seems compatible with 470k crashes a week? See <https://data.firefox.com/dashboard/user-activity https://data.firefox.com/dashboard/user-activity>

- titaniumtravel 8mo agoThe nuance here is of cause that there are a bunch of people using multiple browsers. Also I mean there are a lot of people using browsers on the world
- hinkley 8mo agoIf 10% of firefox users are also iOS users, which is not unlikely, then those people get double-counted. In my case I probably use my phone and tablet for at least 50% of my web traffic, not counting youtube, which also skews things.
- vizzier 8mo agoFor my part I'm not sure I recall a crash having daily driven firefox in quite some time. I'd suspect that the large number of bit errors might be driven by a small number of poor hardware clients.

- pixl97 8mo agoWouldn't it be more likely the faulty machines are crashing pretty often.
- refulgentis 8mo ago470k crashes / week 67k crashes / day claim: "Given # of installs is X; every install must be crashing several times a day" We'll translate that to: "every install crashes 5 times a day" 67k crashes day / 5 crashes / install 12k installs Your claim is there's 12k firefox users? Lol
