    On top of have more built-in privacy features, Edge is both faster and more stable than Chrome. For me, Chrome has almost always been very slow and unstable, while other Chromium based browsers like Edge, Brave, and Opera have never given me performance and stability issues. It’s actually kind of bizarre to me that most benchmark tests that I’ve seen online say that Chrome is the fastest when I’ve only every seen the exact opposite.

    Also, the dev team that works on Edge is not actually directly associated with Microsoft. This is the reason why Edge isn’t exclusive to Windows. The only reason people don’t give it a chance is because they, like you, just automatically assume it’s just a reskinned IE.

    Edit: Can whoever it was that gave me a downvote explain why? I’ve made similar comments on Reddit that also get downvotes and I’ve never understood why. Like, I’m sorry that Chrome works perfectly fine for you but runs like shit for me, I guess.

    I understand where you’re coming from (there is a reason I’m a Linux user) but Edge isn’t that bad of a browser. Obviously, browsers like Brave, Opera and Firefox are better but, at least from my experience, Chrome is significantly worse than Edge.




  • I don’t know if anyone knows what I’m talking about but apparently “tubgirl” is different from the “tubgirl” I know. Acourding to Urban Dictionary, the more well known tubgirl is pretty tame compared to the one I saw.

    I wont go into any detail about the one I knew about but it contained a woman in a bathtub and a bucket full of cow guts and blood.


  • Going this hard to fight ad blockers isn’t going to work like YouTube thinks it will. The only thing it’s going to do is force people to find ways to bypass it or just start using a YouTube alternative. If YouTube is serious about wanting people to use ad blockers less, they should have conducted some form of a survey to find out why people use ad blockers on YouTube and then make changes to either find some sort of a middle ground with ad block users or try to incentives users to turn off their ad blocker.

    Obviously, they wouldn’t do that because it would require that they listen to their users and everyone knows how much they like to listen to their users before making any kind of decision.
