Microsoft has not stopped forcing Edge on Windows 11 users.
Microsoft announces vague changes to the default web browser setting for Windows Insider. Nothing but wishful thinking. Still force-opens web links in Edge.

I have all traces of Edge completely removed from my Windows 11 install.
I'm not as techy as people around lemmy. Some time has gone by since W11 got released, what do you think of it?
I just dipped my toe in the last few days or so. It's missing some QoL that existed in previous versions.
I run 3 monitors. My center one is my primary display with the other 2 just being extra real estate. I wanted my taskbar to be on the left monitor and out of the way. On W10, you'd unlock the taskbar, drag it to the monitor you wanted it, then lock it up again.
W11 will either let you have it on all of your monitors or only your primary monitor. I don't want all my stuff opening on a secondary monitor by default.
I know it's petty, but it's frustrating to have an easy feature stripped
Wanting good usability isn't petty
From taskbar settings, they removed "Never" combine taskbar buttons, and forced it to always combine taskbar buttons.
Like if you prefer having 3 open folders showing as 3 buttons, too bad, you can't do that in W11 without a third party patcher.
Firefox? Since chrome is the worse version of edge and brave is ran by an asshole (also not big on privacy)
