To add an actual source to this thread, a brief paper by researchers at the International Labour Organization (ILO) states that for knowledge workers globally "... there
are between 644 and 997 million jobs, which represents
between 19.6 per cent and 30.4 per cent of global
employment respectively." [1]

Dark Reader has >9 million total users across browsers as reported by the Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Mac app stores [1][2][3][4]. That is definitely a very small percentage of total web browser users - with some estimates putting chrome users at 3.2 billion(!)[5], but 9 million users isn't something to scoff at either.
FWIW - I completely agree that mckirk's comment was a great passing "fyi" that doesn't put pressure on the dev. I also think it relevant to the original post (not some tangential common complaint, nor against the HN guidelines).
