PC Manager app is only available in some regions, but could come to the US eventually

      As it stands it’s better than the most popular browser so it’s not impossible

        I have to disagree, edge has been a big ol’ joke since it’s conception, most non tech literate people see it and go, huh, okay time to download chrome.

        Most tech literate people don’t like it for the myriad of other problems, i can’t think of a single scenario where edge dominates the market

          It dominates the market in vertical tabs IMO. I tried Vivaldi, Firefox extension, the works. The best-feeling alternative was Safari

          It has performance tweaks over Chrome and doesn’t have Google’s spyware

          what about Microsoft’s spyware

          Majority of users already subscribe to that by using Windows

          Older but is still accurate https://www.yugatech.com/comparisons/microsoft-edge-vs-google-chrome-which-browser-should-you-use/

            I said “tech illiterate”, most people on here are going to primarily be using Firefox and other smaller competitors, but in the main stream world like it or not chrome is still huge

              Yes my original statement was that it was a better browser than Chrome

      Windows is telling people their computer is broken if they don’t use Edge.

        Bing, not Edge.
