You read right. In central and eastern Europe (Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Estonia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Russia, and Ukraine). Firefox has manged to break the 50% market share usage!
This is fantastic news as it means more and more people are adapting a more secure, more friendly browser. Chrome/Opera/Safari where up also.
For the rest of the world Firefox’s market share is 25% but it is constantly growing.
Congrats Mozilla and let the users keep on switching!
