Firefox, if it makes you feel any better, you can just make your own firefox: (or mozilla:?) protocol handler, and probably no one will mess with it.

The problem is that the microsoft-edge:// protocol is used throughout the Windows UI and menus and will always open in Edge regardless of the user's preferences. If you click on a link in say, the Settings UI, it will ignore your default browser preference and open in Edge with no way to change it.

Even if you uninstall edge, you can't make windows stop trying to open `microsoft-edge://` links with edge. The default-program-settings page lists it but it's a cruel joke because it doesn't let you actually pick anything except edge; you can't pick a custom program like you can for every other protocol. There are corresponding entries in the registry, and those you can edit to point at firefox... but they are simply ignored. It's quite frustrating.
