Porn browsing: Safari tops phone and tablet, Chrome tops desktop

[Himanshu Arora]

PornHub has issued a report detailing its visitors' browser distribution per platform. According to the porn aggregator, Safari was the top phone and tablet browser, while Chrome was the leading browser for the desktop.

"Over the past year, Pornhub has seen a major shift in the types of traffic coming to our site", the website said."Desktop computers are still a stand up choice, but it seems that more and more people like to tap and fap".

PornHub boasts 38 million daily viewers in total. Among smartphone users, more than 38% employed Safari, while Android's browser came a close second with nearly 30%. Google’s mobile Chrome browser had an 18% share.

For tablets, a whopping 73% went to Safari, while Chrome came in a distant second at just 13%, followed by Android browser at 8% and Amazon Silk at 5%.

In desktops, Google's Chrome web browser led the charge with nearly 45% market share, followed by Internet Explorer and Firefox with 23% and 20%, respectively. More than half of Internet Explorer users coming to PornHub were on the latest version, followed by version 10 with 17.5% share. IE 9 and IE 8 each bring just over 14% of visitors, while version 7 and 6 account for a combined 2.5% of the site's traffic.

The report also revealed that Chrome and Firefox users are most likely to search for “mom” videos, while Safari and Internet Explorer users prefer “massage” and "Japanese" videos, respectively.

I bet Himanshu Arora had an interesting time "researching" this.

Tube 8. That is all.

These pie charts.... Bigger is better, right?

 

[VitalyT]

It is not as interesting as others....:

- which country browsers porno most;
- average time browsing for porno against the rest of online activity;
- which country hosts most of porno websites;

These would be interesting to know, but this thing about web browsers doesn't really tell us anything interesting, except like what - that iPad users are the biggest wankers? - not likely.

Don't you guys hold yourselves to higher standards than this? This is kind of funny, but it does little in the way of news. I come here for news, not pie charts about people masturbating.

I know. They always said an Iphone was not useful for making a call. That's what they do with them.

No, size doesn't matter. Do you feel better now?
Wasn't the whole apple pie thing in the movie, "American Pie"?

You could have just elected to pass on commenting on this article.

You could always keep another browser window open, with an M$ KB "knowledge base" article open to click on in case this thread is too racy for you. Either that or think about , "baseball, baseball", when you find yourself getting aroused.

Don't you guys hold yourselves to higher standards than this?

The short answer here is, "no, we don't". And you're not going to make us.

Chrome for porn, really? Then when you start getting ads for sex toys, escort services, and hard core sites in your Gmail account, you'll wonder, "how the heck did that get there"?

Wasn't feeling particularly down on myself in my initial post. But did you see the scaling on that tablet chart?! Hot damn that's nice slice of pie!

 

[Axle Greese]

Us Firefox users spank the monkey way way beyond our actual market share. We should be proud of our sexual vitality.

Way to go. You probably made half the posters feel like a jerk.
The other 50% likely feel the same way

when I said "you guys" I was talking about the techspot staff publishing a lot of rubbish articles lately. I don't care what the commenters do. What I do care about is that I come here for news and this is the only news site I frequent talking about this. The article is hardly news, I'm just disappointed at the lack of professionalism on this website recently. some people will just say leave if I don't like it, but the fact of the matter is that other people will leave too. I'm just the only one who said commented. I bet for every comment there are a thousand views. Articles like this reflect poorly on the site. This is techspot, not 4chan

Dude, even the evening news has fluff pieces on a regular basis. Lost kittens, triumph over adversity, even garbage with ad/event related "news". So, to formulate the question in reverse, "why would you expect that Techspot hold itself to a higher standard"? I keep telling people, "I'm here for the laughs, period". It would seem I'm telling that to blank, uncomprehending, stares.

When you talk in terms of, "I come here for hard core tech news", you need to realize that doesn't happen everyday. Intel doesn't shrink its dies on a daily basis, a new iPad doesn't come out everyday. (Although at times, it sure seems like it).

Even the Sunday New York Times has comics. In short, there's something for every one. So, lighten up dude. Techspot really isn't all about you, your wants, your wishes, your needs, or your expectations. Need I continue?

...[ ].... some people will just say leave if I don't like it, but the fact of the matter is that other people will leave too.

The truth is people come and go here day in, day out". I always enjoy when some pouty little overindulged internet troll, tries to blame it on me. I'm sure they're just as whiny, demanding, and omniscient, at the next "tech site" at which they happen to land. Others go like gangbusters for a few hundred posts, and simply lose interest

...[ ]...This is techspot, not 4chan

Yeah well, "Articles like this reflect poorly on the site. ", amounts to , "what will the neighbors think", but paraphrased at the post adolescent intellectual pretense level .And really, "what will the neighbors think"? Spare me.

I don't think you get the point of my post entirely. These "journalists" make money off of this site. The more traffic it generates the more money they make. They're only hurting themselves with garbage like this, I'm just trying to point that out to them

as far as you are concerned, your comments are always good for a laugh but little else. If I want news I read the articles, if I want laughs I read the comments. I'm surprised you've actually decided to take a side on this. There isn't a hint of humor in anything you're saying.

I'm still trying to figure out what Joe Cocker was trying to say with, "you're my delta lady". And after all, isn't a pie wedge shaped like a delta of sorts?

First, you quoted yourself and credited it to me. That's funny, but in an ironic sort of confused, muddled way Keep in mind the staff has access to the overall site hit count, and you don't. So, why inflict your belief system, based on your opinion, on the site, the staff, and the visitors, when clearly, you don't have access to the necessary information. You're guessing, based on your own biased opinion.

And really, if you're trying to pass this off as being for, "the betterment of the site", then you should probably shut your trap in this thread, and head on over to "site feedback and suggestions". 'Cause, you're really getting to be a bore here.

And I finally got your quote within a quote straightened out. You, being ever so much more technically oriented than me should appreciate my effort to that end.

And no, granted nothing I've said has been funny. But, you just said you didn't want funny. Make up your mind.

"Desktop computers are still a stand up choice"
With 'Stand up' being the operative word here, or was it an unintentional pun... Hmmm...

 

[NTAPRO]

Tap and fap...

Tap and fap...

Let's not be sexist. Girls watch porn, too:

Slide to unlock...

Tablets are great for watching porn in bed. Apple tablets totally dominate North America so the results should be as expected.

Now I know what screen protectors are really for. kind of like neck messagers in the back of granda's magazines. you know what they're for, you just don't say it.
