Firefox dropped heavily years ago as the market was saturated with other new choices already installed on mobile and Chromebooks, but recent numbers are about the same as they have been for a while. Maybe even still growing, as all the numbers I find are percentages, and there’s no doubt we’ve had an explosion of device use.
