Updated Edge and it now seems to put a frame with rounded corners around every website
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?
Well, I managed to uninstall it fully through Safe Mode and regedit but that made the fingerprint reader stop working. (It’s my sister's laprop, okay? I use Mint on mine.)
It is possible to remove it, needs a bit of work and running scripts as admin to do it but you can figure out if you look it up. I can't remember how I did it and I don't use windows anymore but first page results should bring it up.
Much to the chagrin of a large portion of lemmy users Edge is not actually a bad browser. If you're using a chromium based browser anyway there's really nothing worse about edge than the other options. Obviously not talking about Firefox here.
Exactly. It's my Chrome browser of choice. I use Firefox virtually all the time, but if I need somethiung that works in the cases where non-chromium does not, I use Edge. It's a fast, its already installed so no extra fuss, it has the best vertical tab implementation that really should be standard for every single browser.
Chagrin. When your step father Steve tells everyone in your school that you're quote: as smooth as a seals behind down there... much to your chagrin. Chagrin.
It got way better in the past few years. I think everybody hates it, because the internet explorer was that slow. So it just stayed in our minds that the Microsoft browser sucked.
Most people on fedi will complain about there not being enough browser diversity and then immediately start worshipping and putting Firefox on a pedistal and complaining if anyone uses anything else
I really don't get their take on FF use.
Maybe they don't realize that virtually ALL the other browser options are Chromium based.
Your only real choices are Chrome | Safari | Firefox
And Safari is only on apple devices.
So for other devices its Chrome or Firefox. With Chrome having near market monopoly... so... yeah Firefox is diversity.
Scratch that she doesn't want me screwing with her laptop, she said to put it on my desktop.
TBF I have a habit, or rather an ADHD, of starting 'upgrades' to things and leaving them in a non-functioning state for a while before finally coming back to them and finishing.
The experience in the enterprise as well as the management of it make sense for any company who are a m365 shop. Native seamless single sign on with corporate identities, along with syncing the browser make it a no brained for me to use for work. For personal stuff though I stick with Firefox.
Every time I try to use Firefox I run into a ton of bugs and small annoyances. For example I remember fullscreen often wouldn't work properly, leaving the taskbar on screen. And many other small things that I can't recall right now. It just doesn't feel polished compared to Edge.
And ublock has reliably blocked all ads since forever now, which is all I need it to do.
