What if we got to easily choose our web browser, and didn’t have to rely on complex operating system settings to change the pre-installed default?

Guess what Edge and Chrome do if you make Firefox the default browser? They all harass you if you run them when they aren't the default. At least Firefox respects the "don't bother me about this again" checkbox

Yeah I think that's exactly his point. Every browser prompts you to make it default, it's not exactly a complex change.

Well, you are probably not using the previous defaults much once you’ve changed.
