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.

When Windows 10 hits EOL we might actually arrive at the year of Linux. I've been daily driving Arch (obligatory, I use arch btw) for the past 7 months and aside from a few hiccups where I tried to tweak absolutely everything and NVIDIA shenanigans, neither of which was the fault of the underlying kernel or OS, it has been dreamy. Never going back.
Ah you must be from the IUseArchLinux.FYI instance. Lol
They have a point. After the Win10 EOL, the only secure option for hardware that doesn't meet Win11 requirements will be Linux.
