Comment on Europe wants easy default browser selection screens. Mozilla is already sounding the alarm on dirty tricks

What determines a popular browser?

Which order are they shown in?

Do they have descriptions, and how do you accurately describe the difference in web browsers in a short description?

Should Firefox mention they’re the only non-Chromium browser engine, and should it be grouped by browser engines instead?

Is it really diverse if they’re all just Chromium skins?

If Firefox is going to be buried at the bottom of the list, is that really as fair as the first one in the list?

What about if they unfairly resize their Edge browser as half the screen and preselect it as a default, while making the alternatives smaller and harder to see at a glance for people that just want to go quickly through the options.

This is why it’s more complicated then just “show every popular browser”.
