The sad thing is that Edge is actually decent, and Bing is also not terrible... E.g. as an user there is absolutely no reason to use Chrome instead, but Microsoft managed to make it seem so annoying with shit like this.

Edge was decent in beta and upon release. I find now though they have slowly been adding in their own features and now it's a browser packed with Microsoft's products.

What do you mean instead? Edge is a Chromium rebrand

Installing Chrome... since Edge is already there. If anything they would have to install Firefox to make a difference.

Chrome is not the same thing as Chromium. It's not a "rebrand", it's a fork.
