Look at that shit! Before it was here are your two browsers choose! Now it's...how about for the letter A? Suppose a website starts with an A, would you choose Edge to be your default browser?... then you choose chrome or Firefox, and when you click on a link Edge Pops up with some shit like...Are you really sure you wanna use Firefox to view websites that start with the letter A?

Fuck Microsoft! Give us a fucking break you assholes! You are this turd of a company that is just stuck to company's assholes and that's the only reason any fly will ever touch your software.

Do you consider Edge to be worse than Chrome?

/edit: I asked because they said "You want us to use Edge" when evidently many people do use Chrome, and I don't see Edge being noticeably worse than Chrome.

It was at least running its own engine until a couple years ago. But now, you may as well use chrome.

But don't use chrome. Use Firefox.

Wasn't its engine basically just an updated Internet Explorer engine, though?

It is chrome with a different tracking system
