    I use Edge at work and it’s a really decent browser. It’s not Internet Explorer it’s basically Chrome with different tracking software lol

    Obviously I use Firefox personally. But it’s actually decent.

      I also use it at work and it really sucks. I also have Chrome on my work computer, but for everything work-related I have to use Edge. Like E-Mails and Sharepoint-Stuff. Edge’s startup time is at least 4 times Chrome’s startup time. Sites load extremely slow directly compared to Chrome. No Adblockers. I really don’t like this.

        You can install extensions right from the Chrome Web Store with Edge. I have uBlock Origin in Edge on my work PC.

        That’s a decision your IT department made. I use Firefox with all of that at work.

          Can confirm. I also have to use Sharepoint with certain groups, and it works just fine. The web interface for Outlook works just fine as well.

          I also have to use Google at work, and everything I’ve used works within Firefox.

          I think it’s important to point this out because a lot of people seem to be laboring under the misconception that the sites they use will break in Firefox. The only sites I’ve found that don’t work are things like Bing AI, which work fine if you switch the user agent header.
