Reminder that this graph does not start at zero. Still a ~(EDIT: 50)% increase.

take home message from this graph: if we shift the graph down by ~7K, you can see that we have roughly increased our user base by a factor of 100!

9.33262154 × 10157% is a pretty sick increase, all things considered.

I dont know wtf this is about; I have NEVER had a problem switching default browsers in ANY environment.

After you install the 17.4 update or when setting up the phone it'll ask what browser you want as your deafult. Before this and still in other countries you have to manually search and download a browser and set it as the default.

I was a bit confused too. So all that's changed is a specific splash screen during new phone setup prompting the user to pick a default browser?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (8 children)

yes, because the average user doesn't even know there are different browsers, and that they can change the default one, which is great to "vendor lock" your own browser, in this case Safari from iOS
