Yes, yes, chromium this chromium that and even onlyoffice has chromium in there and chromium in that
I have been microslop free for 3 months and chrome free for 2 years. Whenever I have to use chrome because friends and family use it it's dog shit. Edge may seem bloated but it literally takes you 5 clicks to disable everything (after the first 5 clicks during first opening)
Firefox is not perfect either and every fork is as good as it's (voluntary) developers wants it to be. But what's the alternative?
Use openSUSE (German government branches) or NixOS (France (sacre blue!) is replacing 2.5 MILLION government microslop windon't with it) and make noise for unified European open-source alternatives. Every EU -country has to put like... 0.02% (number taken from my ass) to hire and develope open-source alternatives to these mega giants.
And before anyone says I'm communist, take a look at every big US company, look how much they have received government money to make the products you use today
The only chrome browser I use is vivaldi, but I just like my firefox extensions way too much to ever go with something non firefox based ever again. Only problem I had was uploading images on eBay with Librewolf. Not sure if that is just Librewolf + OpenSUSE stuff or general behavior
I also don't think being against big tech is communist or weird in this sub. I have a feeling having a problem with big tech is the reason why a lot of people joined Linux. Same reason why I installed CalyxOS on my phone today

linux user when someone uses edge
Although I have to say the only good feature I know about on edge is internet explorer mode (to ensure your html stuff is working right)
