Microsoft Edge is gaining some serious ground and is closing in on Safari [0]. Their aggressive conversion tactics seem to be paying off.

The problem with Safari is that they either simply haven't, and, in some cases, even flat out refuse to implement certain standards that they themselves have had a hand in establishing. And then most of what is available comes half-arsed, undocumented, and is not supported/iterated upon.

Just because Google adds something to Chrome doesn't make it a standard.

That is a fact (one that Google is trying very hard to make people forget [0]).

I was actually referring to the proper global standards that are set forth by the W3C [1] and WHATWG organisations (now merged... I think). Both of which all major browser vendors are registered and actively contributing members of.

Edge is now another Chrome-clone.

iPad Safari should count as desktop Safari in those statistics. They are basically the same since last year.
