I remember the early days of Firefox - it was lean, fast, and customizable with plugins.
Over time, it became bloated and clumsy, and lost the speed.
I don’t quite believe IE should even belong on browser usage statistics regarding desirability, because most people that use it simply do so because their computer came with it. If Windows didn’t come installed with IE, I wonder what its usage would be. The fact that it’s as low as it is should get their entire dev team fired immediately.
Having said that, IE is a MUCH better browser than it used to be, which isn’t saying much.
I still run Firefox, just because it still does what I need it to do, and there has been nothing to compel me to make any changes.(aside from the recent political bullshit - but if my bar were set that low, I probably wouldn’t use ANY software LOL)
Would Pale Moon be counted as “other” or would it be counted as Firefox which it was forked from?
I had Firefox 28. I read the article and clicked on Help> About Firefox. Check for updates.
It downloaded version 30 and moved my icons that I had along the bottom the browser window to the top menu. It made all my buttons small with no text underneath. I had Big icons and text prior to the update.
I also now see a RED menu and I have the tabs above the web address field. Totally messed things up. BTW it looks like Google Chrome. If I want Chrome I would use it.
No wonder Firefox is losing share.
