Firefox spokesperson Christopher Hilton tells The Verge that the browser has seen a more than 50 percent jump in users in Germany and a nearly 30 percent increase in France.
Brave saw a similar increase in users after Apple started letting users choose their default browsers on iOS 17.4 in the EU last week.
No clue. Since google only wants to give this choice to users from the eea, there is going to have to be some country verification done. The 2019 blog post spoke about presenting the choice to users after an update.
Maybe the change since March 2024 is that that choice will be given during initial setup instead of later. But that change will likely take some more time to be implemented into updates from device manufacturers, I don’t know how fast android updates follow these days.
