Edit: Looks like you can opt-out of that “new look and feel” pretty easily under the appearance settings but still, whats with putting rounded corners everywhere?
Edit 2: “Explore the web with a softer, more friendly aesthetic featuring rounded corners […] Designed to complement your operating system, whether on Windows 11, MacOS, or Linux.” The fuck does that mean? Windows 11 fair enough but most Linux distros don’t look like that at all.
Edge was fine until they Chromium’d it. I mean, there were always better browsers, but it wasn’t IE-level garbage.
I won’t go so far as to call it “fine,” but I agree that not being Chromium was the single greatest thing it had going for it.
I would rather use Googles search engine than put up with majore dissatvantages in terms of speed and performance to be able to use Microsofts, never forget how they treated the internet before!
Edge isn’t the search engine, that’s Bing.
I’m also in no way saying you should’ve used Edge. Lord knows I didn’t/don’t. Just that it wasn’t/isn’t the worst browser out there.
Sorry, I mean browser engine. True, it certainly wanst the worse and a huge step up from IE and now it’s just another blink shell but I wouldn’t touch a Microsoft engine even if Google had 100% marketshare!
