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.

    For this example, I’m using Google Chrome

    So you wrote this whole article about how to switch to the only browser worse than Edge. Well done.

    I just set my default browser and install MSEdgeRedirect. It’s like EdgeDeflector, except it’s not been abandoned. Its latest version even “grounds CoPilot”, as the dev so nicely put it.

    Naggy advertising pop-ups and forced installs vastly increased resistance to Windows 10. So I don’t get how Microsoft doesn’t know it would scare users away from Edge.

    Giving marketing the benefit of the doubt, I’d blame executive management for the aggressive push. They’re the ones who push for draconian DRM and crunching based on their feelings.

    Linux all the way.

    Windows is only on kid’s computers. Because they need roblox and generally games run better on windows.

      Most stuff on Steam runs very well these days. Anti-Cheat and DRM are the main reasons stuff doesn’t run.

      I agree we should use Linux instead of Windows, but some softwares only work on Windows (mostly games) so…

        I do all my gaming on Linux at this point. If you don’t play games with invasive anti cheat and even then some of those work now
