Despite strong warnings from the EU, they are very aggressive and defend their practices of nagging users. I hope FTC will look into this kind of bad behavior. https://mastodon.social/@nixCraft/112239671499175551
@nixCraft If Microsoft spent more time building a great browser and less time user begging, I might consider trying it again outside of when I'm forced to in an enterprise setting.
Between this and Opera acting like the king of Twitter, I'm fine with sticking to LibreWolf or some other fork of Firefox.
I don’t know. Even brands are getting aggressive on the bird site. I never thought big corporations like Microsoft would act like this and attack other open-source browsers. I guess old habits die hard. They love and use open source when it benefits their bottom lines. However, they get aggressive if another open-source project threatens their bottom line.
@nixCraft They really though they could burn *FIRE*fox? Also it gives huge IE vs. Netscape vibes. Can't wait for another antitrust trial (kinda ironic seeing they claim to be "Chrome with added """trust""" of Microsoft", which is prob. a code-word for "tracking BS").
@nixCraft it’s bizarre how they call FF “outdated” — whenever I test in other browsers I’m shocked at how superior FF is. I had a suspicion that it had fallen behind — but no. Most defiantly no.
