Edge growing in popularity, Chrome losing support

Microsoft's Edge web browser offers a number of useful features that ensure a good user experience - including the ability to import settings, passwords, bookmarks, the most visited pages and synchronize with your active Chrome browser account, as well as several other advanced options. Microsoft recently added Copilot AI, which has caused some users to migrate, at least temporarily.

Edge is currently used by nearly 13 percent of desktop users, according to research conducted by analytics firm Statcounter. This is enough for the second place among browsers, from which it was displaced by the web browser Safari, which currently has 8.83-% market share (it lost 0.13 percentage points). Some insiders are optimistic that the Edge will only continue to gain in popularity

In the first place among web browsers, Google Chrome is unpresentably used by 67.29 % users. This is 0.39 percentage points less than a month ago. Second and third, as already mentioned, are Microsoft Edge (12.96 %) and Apple Safari (8.84 %). Mozilla Firefox and Opera are in fourth and fifth place with 7.57-% and 3.23-% respectively.

It should also be noted that the Microsoft Edge browser is becoming more and more popular among Android and iOS mobile device users. Credit for this goes to Microsoft's expected artificial intelligence Copilot, which improves the web browsing experience. Supported by GPT-4, Copilot allows you to ask questions, create comprehensive summaries and images with the advanced DALL-E 3 tool. Microsoft Edge also prioritizes privacy - with smart security tools such as anti-tracking, Microsoft Defender Smartscreen, AdBlock, browsing InPrivate and InPrivate Search.
