Currently a university student, and somewhat frequently, I see Firefox installed on people’s laptops but they also have Chrome installed and are using Chrome, or Edge, or Safari. Rarely do I see Firefox actually being used but I see it installed frequently. Does anyone have a clue as to why they have it installed?

Yea I know Chromium monopoly and open source browser and whatnot but the average Andy does not know what any of that is.

    Unfortunately right now nothing over the default. Obviously is better than chrome but the default browser on any os is good enough for a tech illiterate. Maybe except for safari, that’s the worst browser that I ever used in my life, it’s too dumbed down

    So they install it for see if it’s that better, then when they notice it looks and behaves like Chrome without any evident different feature, they don’t switch
