Microsoft is trying a new way to stop users from downloading Google Chrome. If you open the Chrome download page in Microsoft Edge, you may see a new banner at the top. This version looks different from the usual prompts that ask users to stay with Edge. I’m curious, what if I download Firefox from Edge? 🤔

I had chances to peek into some of my friends’ laptop and was surprised how many of them are using Edge. MS’s strategy looks pretty stupid, but it’s actually working.

I see no reason to use chrome over edge. I’m a Firefox guy these days, but if I have to use a chromium browser, I’m using edge.

Why not just plain chromium?

Edge is already installed for the half dozen times a year I need to specifically use a chromium-based browser.
