    I’m talking about people on Windows desktops. They don’t know what Windows is, they confuse Office with Windows all the time, they go online through the “internet symbol” which is their default browser that they don’t know the name of. Google is their default search engine and they’ve never seen any other search engine.

      If Google is their default search engine, they must at least be tech-savvy enough to have changed the search engine in Edge, or installed another browser (probably Chrome).

        I love how you guys go “oooh, tech savvy this” and “tech savvy that”, but you consider Chrome to be something fundamentally different than Edge without some extra features.

        Buddy, it’s all Chromium. Sure, the telemetry data goes to MS instead of Google, but that’s it, that’s all the difference there is. Ignoring, of course, all the extra stuff MS has added, like vertical tabs, mouse gestures, etc.

        “Tech savvy people use the Chromium with Google telemetry instead of Chromium with extra features and MS telemetry!!1”, lol!

        No they complained to enough people around them that “the internet doesn’t work” until someone did it for them
