Chrome it is not is one (or the one) most used browser. Personally i use Edge. It could seems a weird choice considering i also use ios,android & primarly Mac OSX. It is chromium based it means it is fully compatible with chrome (also extensions) and from my tests (some months ago) it was even faster than Chrome itself on both Win&Mac systems. I am primarly using MS Office365 business account on all my system so that's why i choose it.
Btw a skilled user obviusly has also Chrome on his system (and maybe other browser).
For whom was complaining about Bing: simply set Google chrome as default search engine and it's done. Bing will disappear everywhere except as home page when you open a new tab (i'm sure i can avoid it but in my case is linked wiht my ms account so it's ok).
That's what i ALWAYS do immediately after installing Edge. Despite Edge i hate Bing as search engine

You can turn google search into bing by setting scripts, LOL

Fortunately, it can be uninstalled.

pieschy,

I do the same, as in using Edge, but changing the default search engine, as I can't stand Bing either. I use a redirector for new tabs back to Google. The only one I can't change from Bing is that side bar, but I hide the side bar and never use it, so it's not a big deal. Even on my Mac I use Edge, but only because Safari has no option to warn before closing multiple tabs. It used to, but they removed it.

Google Chrome will be a quality of life upgrade.

This may sound ridiculous,
but what if, you would ship every new System with a Key for Lossless Scaling?

I am playing on my AM06PRO (amazing little box) and can literally play every title in my Steam library, even Death Stranding at 720p upscaled to 1080p and wont drop under 30fps

Maybe try it out for your own and think about this
