The given figure depicts the market proportions across six distinct web browsers from 2007 to 2014.
Overall, what stands out from this horizontal chart is that Chrome generally attracted the most users despite not being the highest figure in the first year. Another noticeable feature is that while all categories experienced variation throughout the period, the Opera browser was reported with constant data.
Looking at the line of Chrome, there were initially about one-fifth users using this browser before exponentially rising up to its peak of 70% in the next eight years. This figure, however, slightly decreased by merely 2% from 2019 to 2021. Regarding the Safari, its figure oscillated within a subtle rate around 7% from 2011 to 2018, then it later increased to one-tenth in 2021. Notably, Edge had witnessed a long period with none of users being noted before suddenly growing to nearly 10% in the last two years.
As for the remaining categories, Internet Explorer preliminary possessed the highest share of market with approximately 42% in 2011, but it plummeted unceasingly to under 2% for the entire examined phase. Firefox, as did Internet Explorer, was on a downward trajectory, losing one-third of its users, dropping from 30% to 10%. Finally, the Opera generally sustained its rate in the whole period with around 2% users.
