By which metric? Also if we go about market share, then none of the alternatives are “major” browsers. Firefox is one of the few major browsers that on the market, that is relevant. Major in the sense like the Top 4 browsers or so.
A childishly simplistic one. I grabbed that number from Wikipedia. I find Firefox so much better than chrome or edge, I can’t believe some metric puts some order of magnitude around 3%. Triple it to 9%, and if still wish for better.
There’s only 3-4 browser platforms chromium, safari, and Firefox which might be better said as gecko and web-kit. Ladybird and Orion are trying to enter this market with something new.
*this information is probably close to right but I didn’t double check it first.
I don’t understand what you are saying. Linux also had only a few percentage “market share” (say users), but it was and still is one of the few major operating systems. And that’s the point. Its not always about the market share. The article that is linked here is not talking about market share, but about available common options that is viable.
You consider Firefox being a niche browser?
I think Firefox has about a 3% market share. It’s wild.

Chrome and edge are basically the same now.

I think that Linux has such large market share in the enterprise especially REHL. That’s why it has really solid support.
Also why I think Linux mobile isn’t taking off as quickly because enterprise use iOS for most of their mobile systems.
Don’t forget about Servo!
FireWHAT? Have they introduced the year of firefox for the web already?
What do you mean?
