I know you can play the game at chrome://dino, but it doesn’t evoke the same nostalgic feeling of a 10yr old me turning on aeroplane mode and spamming space bar to try and beat my brother’s high score. Good memories.

Edge is actually better than Chrome. Don’t @ me. I still prefer Firefox to both and always have.

I just got a minisforum UM790 which comes with windows. So until I get my new SSD I’m checking out Windows 11. One thing I was happy about was that I could create a local account with no issue. No Winget without an internet account so I’m using chocolatey like I did long ago.

I have to use it at work and it’s fine. It’s just chromium. I don’t get the hate. I do get the hate against internet explorer though.

It is just Chromium and the hate most likely comes from it being made by Microsoft which is completely stupid because it’s not like Google is any better. In fact, I would say they are worse that Microsoft since their business is entirely reliant on selling user data. Microsoft at least has other avenues of income allowing them to not completely relying on selling your data to the highest bidder. Let me be clear on this, I am aware that they all sell data because that is the business they are in.

Also, Edge preforms better and does not phone home to google like other Chromium browser so…

I don’t know why but there’s some websites I frequently go to that either don’t work/load correctly with chrome or Firefox. I always made fun of my brother for using edge, but since I’ve started using it months ago I haven’t had any issues like I had before. Additionally, it seems to be better at managing memory because I’ve never seen it consume anywhere near the amount of ram that chrome does. Also, edge allows you to neatly put your tabs vertically on a side bar and allows you to group tabs without having to get 3rd party add-ons.

Making fun of edge is like making fun of internet explorer, but feature-wise it’s the same/better than other browsers. Props to Firefox but it’s just never worked well for me

Out of the 3 browsers. Edge freezes most of the time for me, and with each update Microsoft inserts more uneeded & annoying bloatware and gotta figure out how to disable it.

I just thank the gods that I can download and install Firefox via chocolatey.

I agree. I use Firefox on my personal computer (running Gentoo) and use only Edge on my business notebook.

Edge was better before, now MS is already adding intrusive info screens and aggressive configurations…
