Browser Choice Alliance

A group of browsers dedicated to the idea that consumers should have the right to choose, keep, and use their preferred browser as the default on Windows.

Setting a new default browser on Windows shouldn’t be a battle, but #Microsoft makes it one.

@tomwarren They should make Windows a trusted platform for end users first. They can start by respecting the default browser and not forcing Edge

[Matthew Santoro 🇨🇦 @SantoroSystems]

I'd love to know why I just restarted my computer and all of a sudden Microsoft Edge was my default browser.....

[Liminal Foundation Games @LiminalFDN]

Dear @Microsoft: You're not sneaky, changing everyone's default browser to Edge with your last Windows update.

It's honestly pathetic. What a scummy thing to do. If a user has changed their default browser IT WAS FOR A REASON.

DO NOT MODIFY MY SETTINGS. EVER.

The BCA welcomes the @CMAgovUK investigation into Microsoft’s business software ecosystem — an important step towards addressing Microsoft’s longstanding anticompetitive behaviors.

Browsers are the gateway to the internet and a key enabler of other important services, such as AI and productivity tools.

That’s why we’re fighting for users’ ability to choose their own browser — to rightfully control their experience online.

@OrevaZSN Would you like to make Microsoft Edge your default browser?
(For the 97th time this year, 864 times so far lifetime.) The answer is still no.

[Browser Choice Alliance @BrowserChoice]

Your browser, your choice.

At least that’s what the experience should be.

We’re holding Microsoft accountable for failing to respect user choice and instead, acting in its own interest. Learn more: https://t.co/2esUeCBS9V

[Yusuf Ibili @yibili]

I’ve never seen anything as persistent as Microsoft Edge trying to make itself my default browser.

[Chase @ChaseJensen]

Microsoft this is the exact reason people don't like windows

Mind you I don't use edge and didn't even open it this just appeared out of nowhere.

[John Mica @JohnMica5]

Dear @Microsoft if I set my default browser to whatever I expect everything in your software suite to respect my decision and not randomly choose to open links in edge.
I know it’s a lot to ask this but for once you could actually respect user options.

“It makes it harder for alternatives to compete when a company uses its reach and control to steer people back into its own products.”

Microsoft continues using dark patterns that prioritize its own interests over user experience. Read @mozilla's article: https://t.co/qqa06geQss

Microsoft is being hit with a second investigation from the @CMAgovUK on reports of limiting competition ​by charging licensing fees when its services were used on rival platforms.

[Browser Choice Alliance @BrowserChoice]

Nearly a decade later, Microsoft is still making it almost impossible for users to change their default browser.

Microsoft, we're ready for a change.

“Microsoft Edge is not your default browser.”

Yes, I’m aware. It was a very deliberate choice.

[Browser Choice Alliance @BrowserChoice]

We applaud the @CMAgovUK's decision to open an investigation into Microsoft’s business software, including Windows OS, productivity and other software.

[Browser Choice Alliance @BrowserChoice]

Just when you thought you’ve successfully changed your default web browser, Windows opens the next link in Edge.

It’s time Microsoft is held accountable for continuing to disrespect user choice.

[Browser Choice Alliance @BrowserChoice]

The Browser Choice Alliance applauds the @EP_SingleMarket motion to require Microsoft to provide “effective user choice and a fair and contestable environment for third-party providers” on its Windows PC operating system under the DMA.
