            Hey, I saw someone ask an innocent question about something they don’t know in a post down the street. Wanna go make fun that guy?

        It is possible to remove it, needs a bit of work and running scripts as admin to do it but you can figure out if you look it up. I can’t remember how I did it and I don’t use windows anymore but first page results should bring it up.

        Why not just use Ungoogled Chromium for your tests? It’s the same browser anyway, just without the spyware.

      Much to the chagrin of a large portion of lemmy users Edge is not actually a bad browser. If you’re using a chromium based browser anyway there’s really nothing worse about edge than the other options. Obviously not talking about Firefox here.

        Exactly. It’s my Chrome browser of choice. I use Firefox virtually all the time, but if I need somethiung that works in the cases where non-chromium does not, I use Edge. It’s a fast, its already installed so no extra fuss, it has the best vertical tab implementation that really should be standard for every single browser.

        Chagrin. When your step father Steve tells everyone in your school that you’re quote: as smooth as a seals behind down there… much to your chagrin.
        Chagrin.

        I chose edge over chrome nowadays. But I’m still a firefox man. The AI help chat thingemejig of edge is also pretty okay.

      Edge is really the best browser for Windows users with low end PCs.

        pretty much because like IE, when using Windows part of it runs in the background whether you like it or not.

      It got way better in the past few years. I think everybody hates it, because the internet explorer was that slow. So it just stayed in our minds that the Microsoft browser sucked.

      Got stuff at work (Microsoft services, for the record) that’ll work in Edge or Chrome, but not entirely in Firefox (gee, wonder why)
