Firefox had 30% market share in 2011, the article links to the discussion about when google chrome first released. The article discusses how this behavior ate away at the market share every time google released something that worked on google chrome, and broken on firefox. And as a result over the years, now firefox has a 3% market share as you say.

Firefox share declined because the market objectively decided Chrome is a better browser. Framing it as Chrome "picking" on Firefox is just silly. And I say this as a die-hard Firefox user and fan.

You have no evidence to support this assertion. I know this because there is no objective "browser quality" standard. It is as least as likely that Google aggressively advertising it on every single page load of every single web presence gained traction for chrome.

Actually, I do: the fact most people use Chrome and not Firefox.

[stonogo]

That's a popularity metric, not a quality metric. Conflating the two is disingenuous at best.

Turns out quality software is also popular. Imagine that!

[stonogo]

Plenty of quality software is unpopular, and plenty of popular software is shit. I'm confident you know this. What is driving this series of pointless nonsense posts?
