I use a lot of MS products. But when they try to trick me into using their browser every time I update, I have to dig through settings to remove Teams,and I have to install a third party app to choose the browser and search engine used from search bar, it's clear they're running amok

Well that's the kind of shit I was talking about with actual issues. It's annoying

Same in edge where it keeps trying to enable recommendations and other trash. Even now on my phone it keeps trying to send notifications to get me to use bing chat gpt. You're a glorified wallpaper rotation, gtfo

I keep edge as my default for work. It's just easier with the typical shitty intranet that breaks down if you use a different browser
