Breakdown: By device type: Mobile 53.7% Desktop 44.1% Tablet 1.9% By browser: Chrome 48% Safari 36.2% Edge 6.4% Firefox 2.8% My personal conclusions: Tablets remain a niche product, Firefox is dead, and Edge will be dead in a few years if it can't eat more market share, which it won't.

US is not the world. Just felt like it had to be stated.
currently it states that 56.3% visitors there are from outside the US.

3% of almost billions(?) of browser users are still a fews millions of Firefox users. Millions of users is not "dead".
Right, but I think the overarching point is that 3% is awfully close to the 1% that is Internet Explorer, which many would consider dead. If usage decline continues, it just wouldn’t take much for no people to stop supporting it. This is from someone who uses Firefox

The most common website is USPS by a significant margin. Could that explain much of the international traffic?
COVID tests, I assume.
