I'm excited to see this browser project coming together!

Kagi's Orion Browser for Linux gets an update.

My @Vivaldi is perfect now.

I switched my default browser to @Vivaldi because other ungoogled browsers have so many issues on Linux. I love that Vivaldi offers native packages for my @pop_os_official PC.

So I was curious the other day around which #browsers are used to access MastodonApp.UK, Universeodon.com and Pixelfedapp.uk and for those curious over the last 2 days this is what the breakdown looks like.

This is looking at all traffic so there's a lot of bot references and other instances / sites will be a large part of the request traffic but I thought it was really interesting just how close the Firefox and Chrome usage is according to this.

The left chart excludes "Other" to try to break it out better (And it does this automatically I realised when I split the chart further like I originally showed) and the one on the right includes the traffic including other.

This is looking at the top 50 browsers based on our logs so it's not guaranteed to be 100% accurate but most people aren't spoofing / editing their browser headers and certainly not I suspect on the scale that makes a difference.

Just thought it was an interesting one to share.
