    The real crime here is downloading Chrome.

    Firefox, for privacy protection.

    The only Chromium browse you should use, as second opinion, is Ungoogled Chromium. Use Firefox or its forks as your primary browser.

    Use Revo Uninstaller or Chris Titus winutil script to purge MS Edge.

      Ungoogled Chromium requires so much work to be usable, on top of having no built-in updater. That’s a really bad recommendation. Have you looked at the steps to even install widevine? You even have to open up chrome flags to manually install an addon that lets you install add-ons.

        Chrome flags and developer addon option sounds like 5-10 minutes of work to me, and for updates zero work on Linux since it exists as Flatpak, and you update your Flatpaks with flatpak update command. On Windows and MacOS, likewise, you just download the newest binary setup or use one of those new fancy package managers.

        Ungoogled Chromium is the only clean, non-spyware version of Chromium, which makes it the only correct Chromium recommendation. You want to recommend adware/spyware/cryptomalware for 1% more convenience?
