Google calendar won't open links in Firefox iOS

It's the only browser I have installed besides Safari, and my default browser but instead of just opening the link with my default browser, it advertises these other browsers to me and makes me click 'Default browser app' by default. wtf I'll be turning that off, should have never been a feature.

Blame Apple. This is from when Safari was forced to be the default in all cases, so they hard coded their other browsers to open the link. The possibility to set another browser as default is pretty new, probably Google is waiting to switch to the new API or otherwise people with iPhone 7 or older wouldn't be able to run the app anymore (no more updates for them)
