Statcounter’s latest statistics show that, to the surprise of some Safari has overtaken Microsoft Edge as the second most used desktop web browser. It is clear that the absolute leader in share remains Google Chrome, which has been unbeatable for years.

Level bench we will find it Google Chrome continues to lead the table industry sa 66.13% share; followed Safariwhich ended 11.87%; az microsoft edgewhich was carried out with eleven%. These data are very surprising because Safari is not officially spread outside Apple platforms, so the second place that Safari got was only achieved with the promotion of macOS, which according to the same portal has only 17.78% of users.

Microsoft Edge showed a slight decline, accumulating 11.13% of users last month, while Safari rose from the 10.92% it monopolized in March 2023. On the other hand, Firefox lost more than eight-tenths from 6.47% in March to 5.65% in April. Although Mozilla is trying, it’s not getting results, according to Statcounter.

In pro platforms, the situation remains more or less the same mobile. Chrome clearly dominates with 61.96% quota, although some failure is appreciated here, seeing that in August 2022 it had 65.04%. Safariwhich is used only through iOS here, reaches second place with 26.85% and is the last browser to break the 10% mark. It is followed by Samsung Internet with 4.8%, Opera with 1.88% and UC Browser with 1.71%. Firefox is known to have accounted for a paltry 0.52%.

When it comes to desktop operating systems, it stands out because Windows over the past three months, it has lost approximately 11% of its share from 74.14% to 63.13%. This drop in the Microsoft system has been used to a lesser extent by macOS and in particular by the mysterious Unknown, which suggests to many that it corresponds, at least in percentage, to misidentified Linux systems, but it is also possible that they are systems They work via VPN. Quota Unknown increased massively from 7.3% to 12.5% ​​during the month.

And here are the shares of web browsers and operating systems on consumer computers. It is important to remember that the data published by Statcounter is not the absolute truth, but can be used to get an idea of ​​the current and past situation in the sector.
