    Eh. I have fiddled with many different browsers as my default. Doesn’t mean much when it’s all WebKit.

      Doesn’t really seem like the same motivation as what would suddenly lead to a 50% increase in adoption in the EU. I just don’t really see the cause and affect between apple prompting you and suddenly firefox uptick. I’m guessing most people who used to install it never realised just installing it didn’t make it the default (but they should’ve when they open any url).
