Five months after the last measurements, which we repeated, we can say that the situation in desktop web browsers little has changed. Chrome continues to clearly dominate, Microsoft Edge consolidates in second place, Safari remains the third option despite not officially having a presence outside of macOS, and Firefox remains in fourth place, which is not enough for an app in its category.

If we compare the data for August 2022 with the data of the previous month, we conclude that Chrome grew at the expense of the rest and that Microsoft Edge was able to pick up the crumbs that the former was leaving. Google Browser gained 1.19% share and accumulated 67.33% and Microsoft Edge remains virtually the same, increasing its share by only 0.05% to 10.91%. The rest of the big ones are losing share, 0.14% Safari to monopolize 8.83%, 0.67% Firefox has to settle for 7.4% and Opera drops from 3% to 0.21% and only has a 2.86% share.

As we can see, the situation remains basically the same as in previous months, with Chromium accumulating about 80% share. Safari can be considered an alternative to the technology promoted by Google, but we must not forget that it is also the father of Blink, the rendering engine used by Chromium, so the only full-fledged alternative that exists is Firefox, which, despite its constant improvements, does not manage to translate this into improving its user quotas.

on mobile three-quarters the same in a scenario where users tend to stick with the pre-installed option. Here Chrome also has a clear lead as it monopolizes a 65.04% sharewhich is normal if we consider that it is a specific “Internet Explorer” of mobility, since it is preinstalled in the vast majority of Android implementations present in mobiles.

It’s for Chrome Safari, whose share is 24.59% is pretty solid in that Apple doesn’t allow you to change the rendering engine for alternative web browsers. Next, Samsung Internet with a share of 4.81%, Opera with 1.82% and RC Browser with 1.21%. Firefox’s situation on this front is very bad, it scored only 0.52% (and this is what the user of the application says).

In short, very little has changed on the desktop and mobile web browser front. As we’ve said before, perhaps most worrying is the situation of Firefox, the only full-fledged alternative to Chromium that still has some staying power. On the other hand, data has long supported Microsoft’s decision to switch its own technology in favor of Chromium.
