if you believe those numbers... 64% vs 3% market share. of course something that impacts 64% of the internet will be more valuable.



Would the majority of the current "desktop" software actually being outdated Chromium/Electron/CEF stuff factor into this too?


I really doubt it. https://www.w3schools.com/browsers/default.asp

that's another sampling of actual web visits. though it skews more tech oriented of course so that's going to be away from safari/ie and more toward firefox and chrome.


I mean in the rewards. A lot of those "desktop apps" have embedded "WebViews", if you know what I mean, which would effectively be running outdated Chrome versions, which would be easier to exploit than the real thing.
