A large % of desktop Windows installations are on employer-owned/managed hardware. And the % of users who are interested in trying newer alternate browsers and/or care about privacy also skews heavily away from Windows. So it might be more rational than it first seems.

What's a "large %"?

I mean, enterprise users wouldn't try anything new of course, but I don't see the relevance to Windows. Would enterprise Mac users be any more inclined to try new things?


> "What's a large %?"

Perplexity says the share of US desktops managed by employers is estimated in the range of approximately 50-60%...

... and Enterprise Macs in the US represent close to 10% of commercial desktops and laptops.

My point stands.
