Hi,

The question I have asked is very sad/painful to me because I like Firefox browser, its community including developers too.

Recently I read on website and even got news letter in which I noticed some doubts that Firefox is in danger of going extinct, according to the latest statistics from Net Applications. http://askbobrankin.com/is_firefox_burning_out.html?awt_l=7ZlOZ&awt_m=K2t.cL6EXuP6SL

Please share your thoughts about the above topic and oblige.

Thank you.

No, Mozilla is a nonprofit organization with a goal of evangelizing an open internet.

Market share, while important, is not the reason it lives or die. Remember Mozilla living through era when IE taking 96% market?

Duopoly of Google and apple is bad for an open web, Mozilla will not go away.

The web browser Firefox on desktop is far from being extinct despite what these article writers on this subject recently seem to think.
