Default iOS Browsers in the EU (Thanks DMA)
On Friday Apple announced how they are going to implement the Digital Markets Act (DMA) in the EU and one of the changes is the ability to set the default browser. MacStories shared the full list, but I thought it would be nice to have an overview in table form.
Firefox, DuckDuckGo, Brave, Chrome, Edge, Onion Browser, Opera and Safari (…) are available in all countries.
It's also interesting to see how many of these browsers are privacy focused with ad blockers and VPNs integrated, which seem to be mostly targeted towards non-technical users, for which installing VPNs or Safari extensions is too complicated. Another batch of browsers seem to exist because it's not possible to change your default search engine to anything except a very small list provided by Apple.
I also want to offer my deepest condolences to all countries that have Web@Work in their list of top 10 browsers. I'm sorry that corporate IT makes you use it.
