You don't need to add "-like", The Verge. This fits the definition of malware.

I'm not sure how this is different from Google pushing popups in every Google app to switch to Chrome.

They should ditch the pop-ups and instead go ahead and make Edge/Bing the default without permission. There's nothing users can do but complain and accept it.

Not sure if you're being sarcastic, but that's how they got in trouble with Internet Explorer in the EU.

Switching to Linux was a great decision. Windows has gone downhill since 2009

Microsoft is using malware-like Windows 11

Removed fluff

While both companies are predatory I would never use Edge because its so bad and bloated its not even funny.

And instead I simply dropped Windows.

My personal laptop updated itself from 10 to 11, and 11 is infuriating. Never mind the pop ups and ads, the whole thinf just sucks. This was just the extra bit of incentive that I needed to switch back to Linux Mint. Thanks, MS!
