      Chromium has spyware installed by default.

      Microsoft at least removed most of Chromes trackers, while adding their own.

      But I’d trust Microsoft a hell of a lot more than Google.

        If you’re already using Windows, they track your shit anyway. So Edge it is.

        If you’re using Linux, obviously you wouldn’t be using Edge.

          If you’re using Linux, obviously you wouldn’t be using Edge.

          Says you, it’s pretty good for streaming 1080p content sometimes. For a while it was the only way to get 1080p streams from Netflix on Linux so it does have limited utility.

      The meme is incomplete.

      The man asked the woman how she thinks she is perceived. She answers wrong multiple times and then he lets her know the reality. (I think—I’ve never seen it).
      So in this version of the meme the man asks Edge how it thinks it’s perceived and it answers incorrectly.

    Edge is not good. It is, at best, ok. It constantly gets in your way with its invasive “features”. And the only parts of it that are good are the parts of it that are Chromium. Use any other better Chromium based browser if you want those.

    Is this a compliment to Google? Edge is just chromium with few eye candies, custom settings and original tracking system replaced by Microsoft tracking system.

    We know it is a good browser, Google engineers are in general good engineers

        If you want chromium without Google get ‘ungoogled chromium’

        A project being open source does not mean it isn’t owned and controlled by a company. Chromium is entirely controlled by Google. It accepts contributions and fixes from others, but Google has the last say on everything, so it still has lots of Google telemetry.

    Microsofts shenanigans with forcing you to use their browser is just ridiculous. They do allow you to switch to another browser but make it as annoying as possible and they constantly try to annoy you into switching again. I mean they own the whole os. They could literally just force you to use the browser and I bet nobody would care for like more than a month because windows is like the only feasible choice as an operating system for a lot of people.

        Yeah and now they’re inching their way into doing it again because fines are just the cost of business. Windows search can’t use anything but Edge and Bing for example, and they’ve deliberately broken the modifications that allow you to work around that, multiple times. They made it much more difficult to switch default browsers, they made it so that if you tried to uninstall it it would come back the next time you updated, etc

      It’s Chromium in different (Microsoft branded) clothes with whatever gewgaws Microsoft can hang off it for contractual income. Occasionally there’s a good reason to use edge over Chromium, but that’s limited to shit like “it can stream 1080p content from Netflix” and such. It’s not outright bad like ie was but I don’t see the reason to use it daily over, say, Chromium.

      It became decent after switching to Chromium.

      It is basically Chrome with a Microsoft skin.

      Whether or not you like Chrome is up to you, but it is still the biggest browser to date.
