Introducing: Autonomous Systems report – [[WM:TECHBLOG]]

Nice to see official data checks out!

Apple on 12 Feb 2026: [1]
> 66% of all iPhones are running iOS 26.

Wikimedia week of 2026-02-08: [2]
> 69% of Mobile Safari reports version 26.

iPad presents a desktop UA (macOS/Safari), so brower stats combine. Apple doesn't report on macOS anymore?

Wikimedia:
> 2026-02-08: 40% Safari 26
> 2025-02-09: 51% Safari 18
> 2024-02-04: 55% Safari 17

For reliable browser adoption data, check Wikimedia's analytics. We correctly use browser version for Safari (macOS) and Mobile Safari (iOS).

I might write something up later but here's the data year-over-year.

I maintain "Practical implications" lists where I map desktop/mobile devices/OSes to browsers they can reach.

This translates Safari 13+, Firefox 74+ to
* Moto 4, Pixel 1 (2016),
* iPhone 6S (2015),
* macOS 10.9 (2013-2016) with Firefox 78.

Compatibility - MediaWiki

MediaWiki

(Inspired by the BBC Tech report from @tdp_org)

Yesterday, Wikipedia received over 45 million requests made with curl, from 113 distinct curl releases.

Of these, 32 million use the default UA (e.g. curl CLI). The other 13 million embed libcurl with a longer UA string containing curl (e.g. GuzzleHttp/PHP, PycURL, UnityPlayer)

At 12 million, most are curl/7.88.1.
