Reuters: Apple won’t be fined by EU over its default browser choice options

25 March 2025
Apple's browser choice screen previously favored Safari over competing third-party options.

Sort by:

        David, 25 Mar 2025Pointless choice as they are all actually Safari in disguis... moreWhich works pretty well mind you (Webkit I mean).

        It uses a lot less memory, it is not calling home to Google, and has features to prevent tracking included from the get-go. Apple even allows Adblocker extensions, which is something Google is cracking down on Chromium.

        Idk why people are against it. Like, sure, iOS is not as open as Android, but the Web Browser engine is not one of its problems. It works pretty well, it's not like you find only broken webpages or something like if it were the 90s.

          David, 25 Mar 2025Pointless choice as they are all actually Safari in disguis... moreNot sure if you're being sarcastic or dumb. Safari using WebKit engine and not the other around. There is other browser brand out there are using WebKit like Dolphin web browser (available on both iOS and Android)
          Learn to differentiate between browser brand and browser engine. It will help you so you don't have to show your stupidity online. Ohh, Google Chrome for MacOS is base on Chromium engine and not WebKit like Safari 🙄

            Pointless choice as they are all actually Safari in disguise because they have to use the WebKit engine.
