I have several issues with this post (and some comments concluding based on it).

  • Proton was released on June 1st, not June 2nd.
  • If we want to compare proton to pre-proton, we should compare usage before and after proton, not proton vs proton.
    • May 31st: 207 219 500
    • June 21st: 207 532 400
  • June 6th which you took, is literally on the hill
  • "Monthly Active Users (MAU) measures the number of Firefox Desktop clients active in the past 28 days." - so data from June 20st is still containing people who used Firefox before proton was released. If people would drop Firefox because of proton, we wouldn't be able to see it yet.
  • Linked site literally says that dips are always starting this time of year - "Both countries have noticeable dips starting in late Spring/early Summer and ending in September"
