If I had to guess, this chart lines up pretty well with the adoption of smartphones, so I'd say the drop is due to people using the default Android and iOS browsers on their phones. I've installed Firefox and use it on my phone but I don't know many people who bother changing from the defaults.

That makes a lot of sense! I have trouble remembering exactly when this or that tech was introduced.
