Most Popular Web Browsers 1992 - 2024

This is an update to this popular video with additional browsers and information. It starts with the second web browser ever created, Line Mode, and includes the most popular browsers from those first few years. Note that no browser ever really drops to zero since there's always a hobbyist trying to use it. Data for the first half of the video is sourced from Wikipedia and many articles from that time while the data for the second half of the video comes from StatCounter.
Here's the text about the first browsers in the video:
1992, **Line Mode**, Second web browser ever created
1992, **MacWWW**, First Mac web browser
1992, **ViolaWWW**, First browser to support scripting and stylesheets
1993, **Mosaic**, First to be widely available on most OS
1993, **Cello**, First Windows web browser
1994, **Lynx**, Oldest web browser still maintained today
1995, **Netscape**, Launched at $49 with a 90 day trial
1995, **IE**, Launched as part of Windows 95
1996, **Opera**, Launched to the public as trialware
1997, **Netscape**, Held 70% of the market but IE being part of Windows was gaining fast
1998, **Netscape**, Acquired by America Online for $4.2 billion
1999, **IE**, Microsoft was taken to court for violating antitrust laws
2000, **Netscape**, Version 6 launched with AOL Instant Messenger
2001, **IE**, Microsoft was found guilty of unlawful monopolization and decided to split IE from Windows
2002, *IE**, Crowned the official winner of the first browser war
So anyway, what is your favorite browser?

The scary thing is how little actual choice there is right now. There is Chrome, Chromium-based Edge, Chromium-based Samsung Browser, Chromium-based Opera, Chromium-based Brave. The only two non-Chromium browsers with over 1% of market share are Safari and Firefox.

[@hotzi9288]

This and very much.

[@MrDannyDetail]

So the market leading browsers were: Until Q1 1992: Line Mode Q2 1992-Q1 1993 ViolaWWW (3/4 year) Q2 1993-Q2 1994 Mosaic (1+1/4 years) Q3 1994-Q2 1998 Netscape (4 years) Q3 1998-Q1 2012 Internet Explorer (13+3/4 years) Q2 2012-present Chrome (12 years so far) If Chrome is still leading the pack at the end of 2025 then it will tie with Internet Explorer's record duration for maket leading. If it's still leading by early summer 2026 then it will be the record holder. It definitely means that there is stagnation in the internet browser market, even before considering the point you made that many of the 'competitors' use the same kernel anyway.

Unfortunately, nowadays, the web is pretty much based on Chromium... Microsoft itself has had to adapt, integrating the "enemy" into its browser

[@SaladLettuce-wo3ys]

Actually don't worry; chromium is open source, which means the browser can just modify it to its needs, But there are still lots of non-chromium browsers, like these forks of firefox: waterfox librewolf GNU icecat And non firefox too: Gnome web/epiphany Badwolf Emacs web browser/eww! And they're definitely worth a try, with features like optimized privacy compared to things like firefox.

[@angharadhafod]

I know this isn't about rendering engines, but I was disappointed not to see the KDE browser Konqueror browser in there, even at a time when you were showing other browsers at 0%. In a sense, Konqueror did what its name said - it konquered. It was its KHTML rendering engine that became Webkit, and later Blink, used by nearly all today's major browsers except Firefox. Konqueror's role is therefore an important part of web history that shouldn't be forgotten. Originally an MCSA Mosaic user, I moved to Netscape in 1995. I became a Konqueror user around 2001 when I moved to Mandrake Linux as my OS, and for a good few years after then, before moving to Firefox in more recent years as KDE got replaced by Gnome on my desktop. Although I'm now back on KDE, Firefox remains my main browser.

It gets scarier when you realize that Edge, Samsung Browser, Opera and Brave are all based on Chromium. Not sure about the browsers below 1% market share, but out of these with at least 1%, the only "independent" ones are Safari and Firefox.

Vivaldi is very difficult to track, unlike Chrome and Edge that use a unique user agent string and Brave that uses navigation.brave lines in their javascript code.
