I dont know wtf this is about; I have NEVER had a problem switching default browsers in ANY environment.

After you install the 17.4 update or when setting up the phone it'll ask what browser you want as your deafult. Before this and still in other countries you have to manually search and download a browser and set it as the default.

Hurry USA! Better find some smallish company to sue for anti trust instead of working on any real issues like this

To whoever mentioned Librewolf previously as a better alternative to FireFox: Thank you.

3,000 people clicked a button out of curiosity or by mistake. If this is statistically relevant for their install base, there really is nobody using Brave. I have as many users randomly come and go into my game on a daily basis.

I don't use Brave due to lack of uBlock Origin support. Otherwise it seems like a decent browser.

Competition is healthy for a market, this is proof that people aren't happy with the default browser and it'll hopefully spur apple into improving their browser and in turn causing brave to improve even more
