Microsoft Edge Overtakes Safari As World's Second Most Popular Desktop Browser


According to the data, Microsoft Edge is now used on 10.07 percent of desktop computers worldwide, 0.46 percent ahead of Safari, which stands at 9.61 percent. Google Chrome remains in first place with a dominant 66.64 percent share, and Mozilla's Firefox stands in fourth with 7.86 percent. As the default Windows 11 browser, the popularity of Edge has crept up in recent months, with the first concrete signs that it would surpass Safari to take second place coming in February, when it was used on 9.54 percent of desktops globally. Back in January 2021, Safari held a 10.38 percent market share, indicating a gradual slippage in popularity over the last 14 months.

Meanwhile, first-placed Chrome has seen its user base increase incrementally over that time, but perhaps surprisingly, Firefox has leaked users since the beginning of the year, despite regular updates and improvements. That suggests Safari's hold on third place isn't in immediate danger, having lost only 0.23 percent share since February, but things could always change fast if Apple decides to introduce sweeping changes to the way Safari works in macOS 13 later this year.

Edge is a good browser. It's based on chromium so, you'll get every feature in it that you get with Chrome.

I never understood how Edge/IE can get so much shyt when trash ass Safari is there to pick on.

Hell I'm probably the only motherfukker on the planet that thinks Macintosh is whole entire trash compared to Windows. Yeah, I said it. And I work professionally in a computer/multimedia heavy industry where folks ride on Apple like there ain't no other choice.
