Chrome, which meant Mozilla managed to scare people away from their own browser into a using a browser which respects user privacy even less. Great job there Mozilla!

FTFY. Both browsers have been pretty bad for privacy for a long time and are more than happy to exfiltrate your data to the respective operators without your consent.

I would say, average user is using Microsoft Edge(whatever that comes default with their OS) on their desktops and a combo of Chrome/Samsung/Safari on the mobile.
While Chrome adverts and fearmongering campaigns are now everywhere and people seem to be taking interest in Chrome, but Edge is probably the most common, as I see it literally everywhere(including public service office facilities).
Yes, this is Cliqz all over again and that scandal cost them most of their German userbase.
