Hi, do you have a moment to talk about Arch Linux? I got a pamphlet and reading material for you.
It’s ironic because you are actually more original/funny than that guy. All he does is complain about Windows
Did you know that using Windows makes your balls shrink?
Yes, a 3000 page pamphlet
No no, all you’d ever get from an Arch user is single postit that says “got a question? RTFM!”
Source: I use Arch btw
It’s all in the Wiki
Username checks out.
Ok, boomer.
I don’t have a problem with Edge itself. We use it at work and it’s fine. I have a problem with microsoft constantly trying to trick me into using it among all their other shitty practices.
My dad came to me in a panic “All of my passwords are gone!!!” turns out macroshaft kicked chrome off default he was using edge without knowing. It actually took me awhile to realize it was edge too because the UI is so similar. Edge does have a really big unmovable spam toolbar along the side so that was pretty much my only major tell.
The toolbar can be turned off with 1 click
Those bricks are laid incredibly poorly, look at all those gaps
Typical Windows app 🧌
AND at least 2 of them are already cracked!
In german we don’t say shitty brick wall, we say ‘Landhauscharme’ and I think it’s beautiful.
Ich hab das jetzt als Land Hausch Arme gelesen und war verwirrt
Dachte ich schon beim Schreiben. Hier wäre ein kleiner Bindestrich vielleicht nützlich gewesen.
British bricklayer.
just block me now then I don’t have any other personality traits
To be honest I’d still be on Windows if MS hadn’t screwed me out of the license I bought through the MS store and attached to my MS account. I do kinda miss the new Bing assistant in Edge, that was neat to screw around with for free while I was on that OS
There are .deb and .rpm versions of Edge for Linux. Doesn’t get mentioned on the main download site until you scroll below the Mac/iPhone/Android options.

You can use it on other browsers with a little bit of work, changing user agents and things like that.
When it comes to browsing the web and showing content and having good add-ons, edge does a good job.
But why does it need to constantly advertise itself and other microsoft things to me? It’s annoying when Firefox does this, but it feels like edge does it almost every time I open it.
Plus I believe you can turn it off in firefox
Okay but hear me out, Linux.
I use arch btw Edge sucks
Edge is a decent browser. Second best after Firefox.
I recently switched from brave too Firefox And I love it so far
But edge, especially the new chromium based one isn’t half bad and I believe it’s actually faster then chrome
And certainly a hell of a lot better then internet explorer
Edge is super lightweight and very handy for websites that don’t play well with Firefox and my suite of extentions.
What a surprise the browser made by the same dev as the OS, is optimized for the OS.
The cool thing about browser choice is there are no “correct” answers – it’s personal preference.
So don’t let the fanboys get you down. You’re entitled to your opinion even if it is wrong.
Since you asked, I recommend Fedora.
What about using Edge…on Linux…🤔
I can only get so hard
I use arch btw…
Holy hell, what is that instance
Glorious master linux distribution. You should try it. Or install Gentoo.
Yep. It’s me. Do you have a moment to talk about our Lord and savior, GNU/Linux?
Or as I like to call it GNU+Linux.
No I’m pretty sure it’s GNU divided by Linux
Seriously tho compiling a kernel is actually pretty easy and the bonus is you get a really tight system
Because on a system with 64 GB RAM I care about saving a couple hundred megs…
The one thing I cannot stand about Edge is that if you want to use it for some specific webapps, but still use another browser as the system default, it will always open links in Edge.
For example, I use Teams and Outlook for work. I have each of them as a PWA installed as a webapp. I used to have them via Edge, but use Chrome for everything else. But anytime I clicked on a link in an email or Teams message, it would open a new Edge window and ignore my system settings.
To be clear, I’m doing this on Ubuntu, and not Windows. So we’re not dealing with that anti-user choice crap that Microsoft does with Edge over and over.
Hell no it ain’t
It’s Chrome, but Microsoft. So no it’s not good but not because of speed or technical quality.
