New perspectives of mainstream browser market war

Reading through the Wall Street Journal's recent interview with Mozilla fund chairman Michelle Beckel Mitchell Baker, I think her comment on the browser market competition is very unique.

Beckel said that most browsers today compete in core performance such as JavaScript Execution speed. in the competition, they promote mutual improvement. "This progress is faster than we urge ourselves to develop ".

Of course, this trend also has its drawbacks, especially when some of the features that surprise us are launched. We do need the browser to constantly add some new features, but this also happens-almost all browsers now exist-maybe they are only for the first place: the first added a new feature. However, a really great product is not always "first"-whether or not the idea is given to the product and whether it benefits most users is the top priority. Therefore, some may be meaningless.

Sometimes you need to constantly improve a feature so that it truly becomes a meaningful feature.

In fact, I am not curious about the increasing competition in the Web browser market. Behind the competition is what I really care about. Becker recently told me that Firefox has recently encountered some "exceptions" because it has successfully pushed back the unstoppable Microsoft IE in the browser market. "Can we do this again ?"

So where is the end of Firefox? When Microsoft IE's development team began to focus on Mozilla's Firefox browser, or when Google launched its own Chrome browser?

Or is Firefox 10% market share? If so, we may have to quarrel in the PC market. In the operating system market, Apple's share is already close to 10%, and it is estimated that Google, which is unwilling to lag behind, will launch an operating system supporting network laptops in the near future.

Firefox has a low market share and is not worth mentioning? Regardless of the number or the reason, we need Firefox to appear in the industry with leading leaders. Moreover, today's browser market is positive and healthy.

The Web browser market is constantly being innovated, not only in terms of performance and functions, but also in terms of user experience. In addition, innovation in this field also takes time to test. Like what John Lilly, Mozilla's chief executive, found when he visited China with his left-hand idle tag, he found that in Europe and America, netizens were leaning forward, holding the mouse in the right hand, hitting the key in the left hand, and he was very busy, chinese netizens are physically leaning on the back of the chair, moving the mouse right hand, and the other hand is idle. Therefore, the shortcut keys commonly used by users in Europe and America in Firefox are designed to be operated with the mouse ).
