Outlook suddenly started opening links in Edge, disregarding my default browser settings

Current-era Microsoft continuing to push the boundaries of consent.
Microsoft Edge is a good browser but for some reason Microsoft keeps trying to shove it down everyone’s throat and make it more difficult to use rivals like Chrome or Firefox. Microsoft has now started notifying IT admins that it will force Outlook and Teams to ignore the default web browser on Windows and open links in Microsoft Edge instead.

Move to Ubuntu, you are not obligated to use Microsoft.
Not going to happen in any business environment
Ubuntu is a choice in business nowadays, alongside Windows and OS X. But it's a choice usually only offered to programmers or the IT department.
Yeah, I had a user who was in Sales. Issued a new PC to her after 8 years. She didn't even know how to organize her bookmark bar in Chrome. I don't think Linux would even be able to come out of my mouth in terms of "Things our users might be able to use"
Sad, but true.
Not with that attitude ;)
Not necessarily, I'm using Pop!OS but my workplace AzureAD SSO mandates Edge on Linux so you're not safe.
