Me trying to uninstall edge
Edge is the best browser for downloading much better browsers lol
Edge is literally the first program I use on a fresh install.
You can install firefox via cli like powershell.
First command I run on any new Windows install
Best Chromium browser*
I don't know what's the hate with edge, it works wonderfully for an average user, it's fully configurable with add-ons and handles security policies really well
The AI integration might be a bit over the top but nothing you can't disable in your side
Really I don't see why you guys pile on so much on it
Because it’s my fucking computer and I shouldn’t have to edit the registry to uninstall a program I don’t use.
After every update it’s also reset to my default browser which is infuriating
It uses chromium which people shouldn’t use
A lot of the hate comes from Microsoft forcing it down everyones throats.
If it had been left to user choice, they may actually have a decent userbase; but instead it's been forcefully installed on pretty much every windows computer regardless of the owners preferences, it repeatedly re-asserts itself as the default browser, some windows features are hard-coded to use it and break if its removed, there is no simple uninstall process, and windows update will re-install it if you manually remove it.
It's my damn computer; if I don't want a piece of software, I should be able to remove it.
Ditched Windows entirely 2 years ago partly because of that, partly because of the same upcoming behaviour with AI. Fuck Microshaft, I'll take my money and attention elsewhere. (I was previously paying for/using pro licenses, for features like RDP hosting)
