A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It's so easy to switch to Edge, you don't even have to try! Literally!
Given Microsoft's track record....
To be fair, chromium aside, edge did start as a nice browser, but as with all MS products, they end up getting riddled with more and more bullshit over time.
Just use Firefox.
Yeah and that didn't take very long. I mean how long was it since they started pushing the "new" edge until the crapware started showing up? Only a year or 2 IIRC.
I mean normally the rule of enshittification is that you wait inserting all the crap after people have started adopting your product. They didn't wait long enough. I always knew they would do it but at least I didn't have to wait long to be proven right.
Still relevant after 17+ years:
Microsoft Re-Designs the iPod Packaging
Or Vivaldi, it's pretty nice as well.
The only browser recommended by Microsoft.
Partly made by microsoft :P They put all the coupon scam and buy now pay later scams in it.
Yeah, in true M$ fashion the hard part was done by other people.
