Browser Market Share Greenland

More than two decades ago KDE's efforts at a Web browser were taken in different directions, including Apple's. I was an early adopter of several KDE Web browsers (4 or 5 of them) and I still use Falkon as my principal browser.

What's curious about these statistics, based on the little data coming out of the 'underpopulated' island, is that Chrome is relatively small and it is fast-declining. Are those Danes recognising the risk of monoculture? █
