Microsoft "Edge Legacy", the pre-Chromium version, will automatically be foisted on hapless Windows useds soon, and the process removes "Edge Legacy", at least the browser part.

The rendering engine stays behind and now there are essentially three web engines that are part of Windows.

Some people may have preferred the old Edge to the new one, but the thing about using proprietary software is that it dies eventually, and the thing about using "modern" proprietary software is that it can be forcibly removed from your computer and something you might not like can show up instead.

Apple removed iTunes without asking, without replacing it with anything that could read its playlists, effectively destroying decades of stuff that DJs even depended on for work.

Knowing how Microsoft usually acts, they'll carpet bomb your Windows PC with this crap and then hijack your default browser _again_, and then when you go to change it back to Firefox or Chrome it'll go "Are you sure? Are you really sure?", then it'll change the default, but then there will be popups warning that you'll get viruses if you don't use Edge. 

Somehow this stuff (and the viruses) are less frustrating than installing GNU/Linux or just buying a Chromebook?
