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

      And I feel like that happened really quickly. It doesn’t feel like that long ago that Edge was a nice, nimble browser. Not this bloated naggy beast it is now.

      I find Edge better than Chrome at the very least. Granted, I don’t use either as my main options, but between the two Edge seems more responsive and lighter than Chrome (and before anyone misunderstands, I know they both use the same engine, I’m referring to … well, prior to Google, I would have referred to it as the chrome, but can’t really do that now… the application around the engine).

      I want the old Edge (pre-Chromium) back. It is the best EPUB reader. Simple yet elegant. Sad they doesn’t bring it back.

          I daily edge at work because I just wanted to and I like how it integrates with our domain. It’s fine, but I did have to spend some time turning off weird things like price trackers or whatever it was.

          I still use Firefox at home though.

            I use firefox all the time but I get random freezes and stutters when I’m watching YouTube. Is it because of the number of addons I have?

              Run Firefox with all add-ons disabled for a baseline check.Then turn on/off hardware acceleration in settings
