Here are the results of my "What is your favorite browser?" survey, here on Mastodon. These are some very interesting results.
Here are the results of my "What is your favorite browser?" survey, here on Mastodon. These are some very interesting results.
It is clear that the incumbents are not getting a lot of love. Edge gets 2% and Chrome gets 5%. These browsers are widely used, but not very popular, based on this survey.
Safari does a lot better at 16%, the same as Vivaldi. The enthusiasm level from those that use Vivaldi is high and plenty of people also mention Vivaldi as a secondary option.
Opera gets just 1%.
Firefox gets 60%, so clearly a strong showing here in the Fediverse, although many say they use Firefox only because they do not want to use a Chromium based browser.
The cool part is then that 13% say they prefer another browser. Plenty of smaller browsers getting a mention, which is nice.
If you notice that the total is higher than 100%, then that is because I allowed people to select more than one browser, although most did not.
If you are still using Chrome or Edge, maybe it is time to try something new? You have a choice!
@jon@vivaldi.net Yet another web dev here. Just wanted to say (and thank you for) that I firmly believe that @Vivaldi@vivaldi.net is, hands down, the absolute best browser out there, for most people at least, despite having voted for Firefox, which I still use as my daily driver (despite Mozilla's best efforts to the contrary) simply to avoid ending with a browser engine mono-culture. We all know how well things went the last time we ended with one (circa IE6 era) but I do love Vivaldi to pieces, truth be told.
