Opera claims 100,000,000 downloads
January 15th, 2006
Opera is claiming they have had 100,000,000 downloads. Somehow I doubt this as Firefox has had 134 million downloads and a much bigger user base. Opera also has no where near the same amount of publicity through blogs, extensions and other websites.
This figure count is probably boosted by including upgrades and previous versions which Firefox does not count. If they are counting since 1998, this figure wouldn’t be surprising. But it does show how popular Firefox really is - in a year it gets the same amount of downloads which it took Opera 8 years to get.
Gotta love the folks who also claim that Opera is in fact the second most popular browser and that the only reason Internet Explorer has such a big browser share is because of it’s UA.
