as someone who used firefox for the last 20 years or more, I just switched to edge about 6 months ago and I've been liking it.

Sir you have entered FOSS space, please state your intents

[-] octo@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Just as a note: edge can be hardened to a point (clear almost all data on closing) where it's better than Firefox if you are interested in security over privacy or ease of use. If you are already bound to windows, installing Firefox offers marginal privacy in exchange for more attack surface.

But why even bother? If you’re privacy conscious and still insist on a chromium based browser just use Brave.

Use things that respect your privacy by default. Otherwise you have to be in the habit of actively opting out whenever new updates or features are added and anybody who would be that diligent about it is probably already using Firefox or Brave anyway.

Can you guys just allow casual people to interact with this website? Holy shit.

Edge is entirely as privacy violating as chrome

It's also chrome, just working for another company.

Nothing better than Google and Microsoft sniffing your traffic.

Or as I have recently taken to calling it Microsoft plus Chrome.
Do two negatives make a positive? Clearly not. Checkmate matheists.

oh I know. with extra Microsoft stuff. I switched to bing too!

[-] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

What the actual fuck? This a troll account?

[-] Willy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

no sir. it started with work and trying out bing cause of work with msft. then it expanded with their rewards for searches and paying for gamepass that way. then I got invited to their early release of the chatgpt equivalent integration. it's just kind of grown.
