vivaldi has a built in ad and tracker blocker and it’s not an american company :)
if you want a chromium browser, that is.
I’ll take news that doesn’t affect anyone on Lemmy for 100 Alex!
Who the fuck even uses Edge?
As a sysadmin in a Microsoft shop, it has a lot of management features that I like. Users generally love Chrome and hate Firefox (for some reason, I dunno) so Edge was a good compromise while it still supported ublock.
as far as a chromium skin goes, it’s far better than chrome - especially with tab grouping, vertical tabs, and profile link handling.
Think about all offices, businesses and personal computers of people who don’t deeply know about computers
I was kinda more referencing people on Lemmy. I know there are a lot of people that are clueless. I have several users that use Edge and it’s a constant battle.
Normies too lazy to install something different.
Normies don’t use adblockers though. So this doesn’t change a thing, lol.
Hence why normies use Edge, they didn’t change a thing.
However, not everything is lost at this point.
I won’t lose much myself as I don’t use Edge (and I’d rather not browse the web at all than be forced to look at ads) but it’s clear there is a worrysome acceleration in the vanishing of the little control we have over the Internet and the way we are allowed to experience it.
Between that and ads in the taskbar and Cortana, MS really hates their users.
Watch how Firefox either gets sold or suddenly blocks all ad blocking addons.
