Mozilla's attempt to make Firefox more attractive as a web browser failed to move the share needle. Google Chrome, meanwhile, continues to dominate.
If Firefox were a vessel, it would have been floated above the sea, swinging rocks at speeds faster than hand pumps could have swept the billboards, overboard passengers and other ships - who were sailing bearers of rivals.
According to data released Sunday by the analyst firm NetApp, Firefox shares fell half a percentage point to 8.2% in November. It was the seventh month in the last 12 months where Firefox had a share, fifth where the loss was half a point or more.
Since the 27th, when Firefox was coming out of the single digits of the uprising against Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE), the browser has only shared shares three times, all of which have been outperforming Firefox 7.7% in a short quarter of 2016. This time, the browser went back to 13% (in October 2017) before shrinking again.

If Firefox's current free fall does not take a sudden step, according to ComputerWorld's prediction, the browser will return to a low.7% lower in June, depending on Firefox's 12-month average. In the same forecast, the open source browser will drop below 8% in early January.
Mozilla's attempt to make Firefox more attractive as a browser choice failed to move the share needle. The re-launch of the recent emphasis on its most brilliant browser content from "Quantum" in November 2017 - more specifically blocking privacy, advertising and site trackers - has been accompanied by a combination of enhancements and enhancements. Or worse, a step toward departure.
. Historically, Firefox was the current leader, first IE, then Google Chrome's counterweight. Counterweight can be weightless, as shown by the small user share of Firefox's smaller flirting. Microsoft's decision to adopt Google's browser technology for refurbished Edge reinforced the monopoly. In Firefox Sans, the browser choice turns to Chrome or Near-Chrome.
Although the damage was somewhat more than a rounded error, and could not be considered a threat to Chrome's dominance by any stretch, Google's browser may be near its upper limit.
Last month's share was the same as Chrome's number at the beginning of the year, for one, so for all the wild bush - up by 2.5 points a month, the next 1 Below the points - this is where it started and ended. And though Chrome has reduced its share of three percent by one percent over the past six months, the movements were washed out in the last three, indicating that shared changes have slowed.
On a 12-month average basis, some of the forecast gains were predicted - Chrome should make 68% of the mark by June - but predicted growth was significantly lower than a month ago, when Chromey hit 70% in mid-2020.
This was made up of a total of two browsers, IE and Edge, the growth was credited to the old and obsolete IE, not the newest Edge: IE rose by four-tenths of a point to 6..1%, while Edge dropped to tenth. %.
Windows 10's share of all operating systems has also decreased, Edge remains with 11.2% share of all Windows 10 browser activity, sticking to one level at a whole new level.
Measuring Edge against Windows 10 will soon be impossible, as the rebuilt browser - Microsoft tosses its own technology and builds a new Edge from Google Chromium - will be released on January 15, launching for Windows 7 and 8.1 as well, 10 Mentioning macOS.
It is unknown whether Edge's re-creation will shake up its user share. If Microsoft does not rely on Edge's Phoenix-rise, it is keen to put a thumb on the scale to increase the likelihood; This will automatically replace the original Homegrown Edge to the Chromium-based version, leaving users stuck in a stable without waiting for what they do best.
Edge can never gain too much ground in measuring net applications. California Metrics best fits the browsing activity of vendors, and if that group drops Chrome for a Chrome Clone, but Microsoft does not object, there is evidence that reconnecting is corporate play.
Elsewhere in the number of net applications, Apple's Safari pulled in half a percentage point in the fourth month, up 5.3%, and the Opera software's browser flat at 1.3%. Safari increased when MacOS grew by 0.6 percent to 6.6 percent, a record for Apple's operating system. For November, Safari's share of Macs rose by 45,6%, the highest mark since December 2017, indicating that it is possible for a browser to convince consumers that they agree to Chrome for a previously used browser.

Chrome: Sitting in its place?

The edge of the IE
Microsoft's browsers retrieve three-tenths of a percentage point in the second straight month of share profits in November (and only the fourth time that has happened in the last five years).
