I wonder how many people are actually running Microsoft Edge by choice rather that as a result if Microsoft’s aggressive attempts to force it on them.
On my corporate laptop, I only have Edge and Chrome installed, and I run Edge by choice. I like the horizontal (I meant vertical!) tabs. At home it's Firefox. I guess I mostly just don't want to use Chrome :D
My work PC runs Firefox and Edge. Firefox is my main browser locked down with privacy protections. Edge is left as the default so that corporate stuff doesn't break when I don't need protection from the outside world.
Does anyone know of a fix for "Suggested for you" pages in FB feed? I used a very clean feed with just posts from my friends and all ads blocked but for some reason none of the lists used by uBlock Origin is able to block the new code for "Suggested for you". Any ideas? EDIT: This is also a call for you, ex-Facebook engineers who once wanted to make the world a better place. You can help now to deobfuscate this code…
FB Purity is a dedicated extension for that: https://www.fbpurity.com/
They specifically say about that (on FB...)[0]:
"I have good news and bad news. The bad news is that Facebook seem to have rolled out new Sponsored Post code which is currently evading FBP's filters. The good news is I'm looking into fixing it. Please be patient while I work on a fix"
So I wonder whether someone managed to come up with a solution.

I am, because I like some Chrome plugins but I choose to avoid actual Google products whenever I can. I'm also on a Mac, and Microsoft (from what I've seen) hasn't been overly pushy with it.

I run Edge across macOS, iOS and Windows. Edge has some great native UI affordances (vertical tabs, collections, etc) and is a bit removed from Google.

Same situation here. I do enjoy vertical tabs. I think edge has the best implementation of them.

As a browser, it seems pretty good. I mostly use it as a backup browser, for when Firefox has issues. Most likely due to ad blocking and noscript extensions, but even disabling that stuff in the tab I've had issues with some sites that worked with Edge. I don't have Chrome installed. I've seriously considered switching to Edge entirely. I find myself sometimes opening it just to use the ChatGPT feature, which is really useful for searching. But I'm vaguely uneasy about being more integrated with the Microsoft ecosystem, even if it would make my life easier in various ways. And I think the Firefox web browser is worth supporting. I suspect that 'Microsoft's aggressive attempts' to get people to use it has created more use than it has lost. If they keep it up, we might see Chrome share shrink as more people realize they are installing Chrome from habit rather than because they prefer it. But Google control Android, and some integrations with phones are going to be hard to beat.

I do. At least on my devices it appears to run better than Chrome, the Hyper-V-protected tabs are neat, and I generally like Edge more than Chrome in usability. I even install it in my Linux VMs too (I know — blasphemy!).
I use Google Search though, since Bing still gives me worse results.

Arc has the best Chrome-based implementation IMO. The best implementation all-round is tree style tabs in Firefox.
