I don’t expect most iPhone users to ever change their default settings, but it’s nice that it will be possible in a year.

Who knows, maybe one day you can run actual Firefox on them too? :p

    Even though that’s true, I think no one has made their engine for iOS yet.

        My sarcasm detector isn’t going off, so I’ll bite.

        A small market?! 450 million afluent consumers not enough for you?

          What’s the market here? People don’t pay for browsers and the way it’s monetized is via ads… which is problematic in the EU thanks to GDPR. So here this would mean a free browser without being able to use ads.

          I personally do want it, and would pay for it, but I’m rather convinced the other 450 millions (which clearly don’t all have iPhones) are not.

            It’s the same market as there is in the US or the rest of the world for controlling browser market share.

        Additionally, based on the way Apple implemented it, the dev would have to resign in Europe.

        Maybe that has changed as they keep making changes. Either way they are being huge dicks and have turned me off from their platforms and services.
