I expect people have various reasons. Personally, my installs of FF/Chrome/Vivaldi are locked down in various ways to not accepts cookies/scripts, so I use Edge for sites that break in my other browsers that I don't need to access often enough to bother whitelisting. Same way I use Safari on macOS.
- qwerty456127 8y agoYou don't have to disable cookies, there is Vanilla Cookie Manager to delete cookies set by any but whitelisted sites as you close them. You can also use incognito mode (which starts with no extensions enabled by default) - I use it when I have to view a site that gets broken by my ad-blocking and privacy-enforcing extensions set-up. And there actually are so many Chrome-based sites you can always install one more if the number you already have is not enough and you don't like Chrome's built-in user switching. MS browsers have a long history of being not just outdated from the compatibility point of view but also vulnerable to malware so I personally wouldn't trust them. I would actually love to learn there is a real (using a different engine) alternative browser but I feel skeptic about Microsoft building one.
