I was checking out some more obscure *nix options for fun. I looked at Devuan (Debian without systemd) and its derivatives, and spotted this post in their forums: https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=4632

Apparently, Pale Moon replaced Firefox as the default browser in Exe GNU/Linux :)

Nice. I think user-selectable browser options should be the defacto standard on installers, the same way desktop environments are selectable on many distributions' installers nowadays. Default presinstallations of Firefox need to go... :thumbdown:
