I guess that depends on a number of factors, including the relative sizes of those two markets, how Opera measures usage, and how many people use multiple browsers.Īccording to Netmarketshare, Opera is currently the 7th most popular desktop browser-behind Chrome, Firefox, IE, Edge, Safari, and something called Sogou Explorer-and has just 1.46 percent usage share.

The conveniently even amount that that adds up to is 300 million. Separate charts indicate that Opera usage on desktop grew from over 40 million people in early 2017 to 68 million by the end of 2019, and that Opera’s usage on mobile similarly grew, from over 150 million people in early 2017 to 232 million by the end of last year. “We are grateful for all the positive feedback we have gotten and I am proud of what the browser team achieved in 2019.” “We continued our innovation path and our user base continued to grow, our products received awards and user ratings continued upward,” Opera executive vice president Krystian Kolondra writes in the announcement. (Update: The firm tells me the figures were audited.) Opera announced today that about 300 million people use its web browser across both desktop and mobile.
