Last I checked they still do exactly that. Not sure why that case is used as an example when literally every OS bundles a preferred browser

Have you checked in EU?
Checked what in EU? Do Microsoft not bundle their own browser in Windows in EU?
I haven't used windows in a long time, but on Android there's a dialog to pick browser and search engine on setup. So I'd assume that they're also bound by DMA in the same way.
No
Source? The only news I can find about is EU users can uninstall it.
There used to be a browser chooser app, but it was removed many years ago now. Now you can just uninstall edge instead.
They do. Good luck getting Firefox otherwise, so I don't mind it.

Similarly, they bundle Bing as the Web search in the start menu.

Does IKEA sell it's competitors products too or does Sweden not care about monopolies for them suddenly?
What is illegal is using your monopoly in one area to further your other enterprises.
Oh like having a grocery store and restaurant in your furniture store?
If IKEA was a monopoly then perhaps.
