Mozilla's take on the Edge news."By adopting Chromium, Microsoft hands over control of even more of online life to Google... We compete with Google not because it’s a good business opportunity. We compete with Google because the health of the internet and online life depend on competition and choice."https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2018/12/06/goodbye-edge/

@peterwhile they make a good point, it does make me wonder if they'd reacted the same way if Microsoft had chosen to use Quantum instead of Chromium.Or if MS had chosen to adopt both, and offered users a choice to switch between engines.

@peter I mean... does it really though? Or is it more because Google, despite potentially having tried not to be, is pretty heccin' evil?

@peter Really would like to say fuck Google totally, but, my phone is supported by LineageOS, so, looks like my best option is just to disable all the Google apps and use it without a Google account.

@peter I disagree with them. I think MS will keep their Browser as Google free as possible
