How are you guys seeing this? I constantly hear these complaints but never see it myself.

I'm not sure how this is different from Google pushing popups in every Google app to switch to Chrome.

While both companies are predatory I would never use Edge because its so bad and bloated its not even funny.

I found edge mysteriously on my phone yesterday I'm not sure if the culprit was the bing app or the Microsoft launcher (not my main launcher I was just curious).

One thing I do know is I didn't install edge myself I use mull.

They should ditch the pop-ups and instead go ahead and make Edge/Bing the default without permission. There's nothing users can do but complain and accept it.

lol I use Linux

I mean on one hand, terrible behavior. On the other, good.

The fucking bing bar pop-up!!

Good thing I don't use Windows.

You don't need to add "-like", The Verge. This fits the definition of malware.

My personal laptop updated itself from 10 to 11, and 11 is infuriating. Never mind the pop ups and ads, the whole thinf just sucks. This was just the extra bit of incentive that I needed to switch back to Linux Mint. Thanks, MS!
