[ISUCubswin]

Can you tell how many of us are pron addicts?

Ah, that would make sense. It's interesting that it is half of iOS still.

Definitely surprising considering:

I just stumbled upon Cyclonefanatic by searching "nut cups" on Ask Jeeves.

@ImJustKCClone @BoxsterCy, which one of you still uses Netscape?

Chrome because.....

 

[Bader]

Definitely surprising considering:

In the US the marketshare between iOS and Android is essentially 50/50. If you were able to break that down farther to people with enough disposable income to actively follow a sports team I'd bet the iOS market grows even more

What is Netscape?

I prefer the term connoisseur.

Hey, K - here's one from 2012:

This is for you tech geeks out there.

I am currently in the process of doing research on our site/the business, etc. and I thought some of you would find this interesting. It's percentages of what web browsers people on CF use the most. This was just for the month of April.

Internet Explorer -33.34%
Safari - 21.55%
Chrome - 18.75%
Firefox - 18.18%
Android Browser - 6.17%

Everything else was less than a percent. Just thought I'd drop that info for you today. Have fun!

2016

On bye weeks, I like to really dig deep into our site's analytics and learn more about traffic, our users, etc. I know a lot of you web geeks are also interested in this stuff so here are a few nuggets I learned today.

What browsers do CF users used most?

--- 45 % of you use Chrome.
--- 26 % of you use Safari.
--- 8 % of you are on Firefox
--- 7 % are on Internet explorer
--- The rest is via iPhone, Android aps.
--- .2 % of you are still using Netscape

Operating systems

--- 41 % use Windows
--- 28 % use iOS
--- Linux at 15.4 %
--- Macintosh (old school) at 8.5 %

Where do you come from?

--- 83 % of our traffic is direct, with the rest coming from search engines, social media, etc.

This means you guys are very loyal, and I love you for that.

i can't believe more people don't use firefox

Firefox sucks.

 

[Ms3r4ISU]

I do my web surfing through a shadow browser that routes through 7 different countries. That way They don't know where I am.

I thought you said "... I don't know where I am."

 

[mctallerton]

I freely admit I held on to Netscape (Navigator & Communicator) until they were no longer supported.
I use Firefox. I'm not a gamer, don't do a lot of streaming of movies & stuff (occasionally games). Familiarity goes a long way with me. I know how to use Firefox, and I'm good with that. Unlike you younger folk, I am not driven to latch on to every shiny new thing that comes along.

Dreams ruined, I was hoping you were a twitch gamer grill.

Downloading netscape now. Gotta get our numbers up!

Short version - IE pooped the bed, and Chrome surged.

You've MET me IRL. Could anything be farther from the truth???

I thought you said "... I don't know where I am."

Maybe I do, maybe I don't.

Definitely surprising considering:

That's worldwide though, I suspect that iOS a significantly higher percentage of users in the US. The high percentage of Android worldwide is due to the widespread availability of cheap Android smart phones that permeate the low end market in other countries.

Android probably still has a bigger share in the US than iOS, but I suspect that among high end phones, it's much more even, and why you see a more even split among the more tech savvy forum goers.

Was a firefox person but when I was introduced to Chrome I went there and never looked back.

 

[mdk2isu]

Firefox has fallen off hard, we watch metrics like this too with our product. The nice thing to see is no one is using IE

Only use it when at work!
