We’re at an insane level of stupid. I had to buy a new smartphone in an emergency yesterday, and the onboarding runs as follows :

1. “What browser do you want to use?” Firefox
2. “What search engine do you want to use? (Non skipable)” Ecosia

This results in installing two separate apps : Firefox and Ecosia

I think it’s the same deal as search engines : people have been made too unaware of what is on their devices. Every service needs its own app or people will just not dare to “tinker”.
