However, despite the company’s best efforts, the growth of Edge has stalled since the turn of the year, in part due to the pool of Internet Explorer and Edge Legacy users running dry, many of whom have now already made the transition.

In May, Edge even overtook Firefox in the rankings for the first time.
Since its re-release in January 2020, Microsoft Edge has gone from strength to strength and now holds 3.4% of the market.
