The following table shows browser usage movements during the past twelve months:
下表顯示了過去十二個月內瀏覽器使用情況的變化：
| 52.97% | 58.44% | +5.47% | +10.30% |
| 15.60% | 13.96% | -1.64% | -10.50% |

(The tables show market share estimates for desktop browsers. The ‘change’ column is the absolute increase or decrease in market share. The ‘relative’ column indicates the proportional change, i.e. Edge’s user base grew 3.2% last month. There are several caveats so I recommend you read How Browser Market Share is Calculated and StatCounter vs NetMarketShare.)
(下表顯示了桌面瀏覽器的市場份額估計值。“更改”列是市場份額的絕對增加或減少。“相對”列表示成比例的變化，即Edge的用戶群上個月增長了3.2％。有幾點警告因此，我建議您閱讀如何計算瀏覽器市場份額以及StatCounter與NetMarketShare 。)
The middle of the year rarely provides big browser news given vacations and the lack of big OS and software releases. However, I do not recall a month when less happened! There was barely any movement in the charts.
考慮到假期以及缺乏大型OS和軟件版本，今年中旬很少提供大型瀏覽器新聞。 但是，我不記得一個月發生的事情少了！ 圖表上幾乎沒有任何動靜。
Even the twelve-month figures have begun to stabilize. Chrome gained almost 5.5% and Edge usage has grown since its release this time last year. Unsurprisingly, oldIE usage has more than halved but the other browsers are mostly static.
甚至十二個月的數字也開始穩定。 自去年同期發布以來，Chrome增長了近5.5％，Edge的使用量也有所增長。 毫不奇怪，oldIE的使用量減少了一半以上，但其他瀏覽器大多是靜態的。
Have the browser wars ended?
瀏覽器大戰結束了嗎？
瀏覽器大戰 (Browser War I)
The first and most bloody browser war raged between Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator between 1996 and 2001. The web was new and the applications evolved rapidly from one month to the next. CSS and JavaScript arrived and the browsers competed on innovative features.
Internet Explorer和Netscape Navigator在1996年至2001年之間爆發了第一場也是最血腥的瀏覽器大戰。Web是新的，應用程序從一個月到下一個月Swift發展。 CSS和JavaScript出現了，瀏覽器在創新功能上展開了競爭。
Microsoft was fined for questionable business practices, but IE eventually won because it was better. By 2001, IE6 had a seemingly unassailable 95% market share.
微軟因可疑的商業行為而被罰款，但IE最終因為表現更好而獲勝。 到2001年，IE6擁有95％的市場份額。
瀏覽器大戰二 (Browser War II)
Microsoft had a few competitors:
微軟有一些競爭對手：
- Opera. The browser had a passionate following, but few people were willing to pay a $50 license fee when IE and other options were free. 歌劇。 該瀏覽器擁有熱情的追隨者，但是當IE和其他選項免費時，很少有人愿意支付50美元的許可費。
- The Mozilla Suite. The Gecko rendering engine was a ground-up rewrite of the old Netscape HTML parser, but it was stuck in a slow and bloated set of browser, email, newsgroups, editor, IRC client and address book applications. Mozilla套件。 Gecko渲染引擎是對舊的Netscape HTML解析器的完全重寫，但是它陷入了緩慢而又腫的瀏覽器，電子郵件，新聞組，編輯器，IRC客戶端和通訊錄應用程序中。
An experimental Mozilla browser which adopted Gecko was launched as “Phoenix” in September 2002. The application became an immediate hit with developers who had become frustrated with Microsoft’s complacency. Trademark disputes led to the name being changed to “Firebird” and ultimately “Firefox” in February 2004.
2002年9月，采用Gecko的實驗性Mozilla瀏覽器作為“ Phoenix”啟動。該應用程序立即引起了開發人員的歡迎，這些開發人員對Microsoft的自滿情緒感到沮喪。 商標糾紛導致該名稱在2004年2月更改為“ Firebird”，并最終更改為“ Firefox”。
Another skirmish ensued and Microsoft was forced back into the browser market. Firefox eventually gained around one third of the market in 2010 but IE held the dominant top spot.
隨后又發生了一場小沖突，微軟被迫重新進入瀏覽器市場。 Firefox最終在2010年獲得了約三分之一的市場份額，但IE占據了主導地位。
瀏覽器大戰III (Browser War III)
Google released Chrome in 2008. The name was adopted because Google wanted to minimize the chrome (outer interface) of the browser so users could concentrate on page content. Google stated they were reluctant to create their own application, but it quickly became evident their online commercial clout could beat Microsoft — especially when IE had become an in-joke for all that was wrong in the industry.
Google于2008年發布了Chrome。之所以使用這個名稱，是因為Google希望最小化瀏覽器的鑲邊(外部界面)，以便用戶可以專注于頁面內容。 谷歌表示，他們不愿創建自己的應用程序，但是很快他們的在線商業影響力就可以擊敗微軟，尤其是當IE成為行業中所有錯誤的笑話時。
Chrome overtook IE in June 2012 and has been there ever since. The other vendors took note and, rather than competing on features, began to simplify and streamline their applications. (Only the recently released Vivaldi is attempting to buck the trend).
Chrome于2012年6月取代IE，此后便一直存在。 其他供應商注意到了這一點，而不是在功能上展開競爭，而是開始簡化和簡化其應用程序。 (只有最近發布的Vivaldi試圖逆勢發展) 。
In 2016, few people would notice the differences between Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari and Opera. They’re all excellent applications with capable rendering engines. The market has matured and stabilized. New features are more infrequent, but users are happy regardless of their choice.
在2016年，很少有人會注意到Chrome，Firefox，Edge，Safari和Opera之間的差異。 它們都是具有強大渲染引擎的出色應用程序。 市場已經成熟穩定。 新功能很少見，但無論選擇如何，用戶都很滿意。
Like any product, the diminished browser differentiation was inevitable. An application can only survive if it appeals to the masses, so the most successful traits are duplicated while lesser-used features are dropped. Life may be less colorful, but we finally have what we’ve been demanding for twenty years: good cross-browser compatibility.
像任何產品一樣，減少瀏覽器差異是不可避免的。 只有吸引大眾，應用程序才能生存，因此，最成功的特征將被復制，而較少使用的功能將被刪除。 生活可能沒有那么豐富多彩，但是我們終于有了二十年來一直要求的： 良好的跨瀏覽器兼容性 。
2016年7月至8月全球移動瀏覽器統計數據 (Worldwide Mobile Browser Statistics, July to August 2016)
Mobile browser use has been edging closer to 50%, but dropped 0.88% in August, and now accounts for 46.31% of all web activity. The long-term trend is clear and mobile should overtake desktop usage at some point in the next twelve months.
移動瀏覽器的使用率已接近50％，但在8月份下降了0.88％，目前占所有網絡活動的46.31％ 。 長期趨勢很明顯 ，移動設備將在未來十二個月內超過臺式機的使用量。
The top mobile browsing applications for the month were:
本月最熱門的移動瀏覽應用程序是：
| 38.56% | 39.02% | +0.46% | +1.20% |
| 18.53% | 18.77% | +0.24% | +1.30% |
| 14.39% | 14.28% | -0.11% | -0.80% |
| 11.22% | 10.91% | -0.31% | -2.80% |
| 6.55% | 6.95% | +0.40% | +6.10% |
| 7.29% | 6.81% | -0.48% | -6.60% |
| 1.47% | 1.38% | -0.09% | -6.10% |
| 1.99% | 1.88% | -0.11% | -5.50% |
| 38.56％ | 39.02％ | + 0.46％ | + 1.20％ |
| 18.53％ | 18.77％ | + 0.24％ | + 1.30％ |
| 14.39％ | 14.28％ | -0.11％ | -0.80％ |
| 11.22％ | 10.91％ | -0.31％ | -2.80％ |
| 6.55％ | 6.95％ | + 0.40％ | + 6.10％ |
| 7.29％ | 6.81％ | -0.48％ | -6.60％ |
| 1.47％ | 1.38％ | -0.09％ | -6.10％ |
| 1.99％ | 1.88％ | -0.11％ | -5.50％ |
There’s little change other than the stock Android browser falling behind the Samsung Internet browser. Activity often fluctuates more than the desktop market:
除了現有的Android瀏覽器落后于三星Internet瀏覽器外，沒有什么變化。 活動通常比臺式機市場波動更大：
That said, mobile OSs have converged to just Android and iOS. Alternatives such Windows Mobile, Blackberry, webOS, Firefox OS, Symbian and others have all but disappeared. There’s less choice, but the market has streamlined as people rejected the less-popular options.
也就是說，移動操作系統已經融合到僅Android和iOS。 Windows Mobile，Blackberry，webOS，Firefox OS，Symbian等替代軟件幾乎消失了。 可供選擇的選項較少，但是隨著人們拒絕了人氣較低的選項，市場變得精簡了。
Perhaps it’s a shame, but I doubt we’ll encounter another significant browser war until the web itself changes dramatically.
也許這是一種恥辱，但是我懷疑在網絡本身發生巨大變化之前，我們還會遇到另一場重大的瀏覽器大戰。
