Probably not a coincidence that the share plummets around the same time as the smartphone explosion.

I’d be curious to see just desktop browsers, to see how much there’s really an exodus of Firefox users vs. new devices being added that restrict third-party browsers.

Also salary should be inflation-adjusted.

Neither probably changes the graph too much though.

Right, Firefox has the same situation with Chrome on mobile, as it had with Internet Explorer in Desktop.

I mean the graph starts in 09, and Chrome launched in 08. I assume that did more to them, but both were probably notable.

Oh wow. Yeah, I always think of Chrome as having been around much longer, but you’re right.
