Microsoft Edge is now the number 2 desktop browser!
The Microsoft Edge captured 10.07 percent of the desktop computer market share slightly pulling ahead of Apple's Safari with 9.61 percent.
The current leader is still Google Chrome with a massive 66.64 percent of the pie. At number 4 is Mozilla Firefox with 7.86 percent. Opera is at number 5.
This is quite big as Microsoft Edge is the newest among the top browsers that originally went live last 2020.
Microsoft made this possible by making Edge the default browser of Windows 11 devices replacing Internet Explorer.
For mobile, Chrome is still the leader with a 62.87 percent market share followed by Safari with 25.35 percent, and Samsung Internet with 4.9 percent.
For the overall stats, Chrome leads with 64.3 percent, Safari has 19.13 percent, and Edge has 4.07 percent.
This data suggests that Microsoft needs to be more aggressive in mobile platforms to further continue its growth.
