Microsoft keeps shooting itself in the foot with Edge::Microsoft Edge is full of fantastic features, but the tech company makes it hard to appreciate them.

    Now, Google is bringing in Manifest V3, a new version of Chromium.

    If this is the level of their understanding, it’s hard to trust anything this outlet publishes.

    Bit alarmist no? Microsoft doesn’t necessarily need to build on top of the latest chromium. They certainly have the resources to just fork chromium and keep that updated.
    Not that I personally care, I just use Firefox

    I’ve been a MS products fan since Windows Phone, Cortana, and OneNote stole my heart. I loved the great features that Windows 10 and Edge provided out-of-the box. Bing provided better results than Google for some time.

    But Phone was never accepted by the market, and with it, Cortana faded away. OneNote hasn’t kept up with the market, and they somehow broke the cursor on mobile. Sticky Notes lost compatibility with Dark Mode. They started pushing ads to Windows start menu, and embedded ads in Edge Collections.

    Microsoft makes great software, then fuck it all up. Oh well, back to Linux.

      ha. ive spent my entire career installing and managing microsoft products. top to bottom. soup to nuts. client to server… for 40 years. my bread and butter relies on microsoft.

      its all garbage, and their quality control is actually getting worse.

      this entire post is fanboi fiction.
