Today, only a relative handful of Firefox users are left. According to the US federal government's Digital Analytics Program (DAP), which gives us the running count of the last 90 days of US government website visits, only 2.2 percent of visitors use Firefox.

Look, I know far fewer people use Firefox than Chrome, but basing it on who uses U.S. government websites in the last 90 days doesn't even make sense if Firefox users were only in the U.S.

I'm in the U.S. and use Firefox and I haven't been to a U.S. government website in the last 90 days as far as I know.

And, I don't know if the author knows this or not, but there's around 200 other countries out there.

Some of those government websites only work on chromium too, which is irritating

You guys know of government websites that actually work?

The ones hosted by my government literally shut down outside business hours...

Try to login to view your tax info for example and it'll tell you to come back 9-5 mon-fri.
