    Edge was a win when it first came out. It had its own rendering engine, was fast and svelte.

    Now it’s just another bloated Chrome clone overstuffed with privacy-invading marketing features.

      Same story every time. Something good turns into shit because they need to add marketing.

      I’m shocked Microsoft hasnt fucked up VS Code yet. Someone much smarter than average is running that team at Microsoft.

        Nah the future for VS Code looks dark imo. They own VS Code, Github, NPM and Copilot and everything they touch turns into shit.

        It turned bad because a bunch of users refused to use it because they remembered never updating past IE8 and made jokes about it lagging behind the competition

        VS Code is the fucked up version of Code OSS
