Every shitty new idea in Redmond will just generate more Linux users.
At least it seems pretty easy to disable? From the way they’re talking about it, it’s just a single click on a big banner in the edge window. But still, come on microslop
It never prompted me. Zen's my default and I didn't even open Edge once on my laptop.
On my other computer I'm considering Mint or Ubuntu tho, but want to test first before migrating.
