Shows how important the OS ecosystem drives user choice. Whatever comes stock standard and doesn't require fiddling, but gets the job done, safe or not, gets used. Samsung on mobile drives a lot of that, plus base tablets. I went to the bother of installing Firefox on my tablet because a) I knew how, b) I use it on my laptop already, c) I know how to control it already. None of that matched the new user experience or desire to learn something different.
