    I don’t wholly disagree, but I do take issue with the “they’d be none the wiser”

    Even the average person knows there are more options than the original default browser. I have no love for windows, but long gone are the days when they didn’t prompt you for “would you like to make this your default browser” when you downloaded something else.

    Try changing the average user’s web browser that they’re accustomed to overnight and tell me they don’t pitch a fit

      Beyond transferring bookmarks and extensions (neither of which tend to be an issue), and the different icon, what would the average user hang their allegiance off?

      The prompts to use Edge are the same whether you’re using Chrome or Firefox.
