Google employees in these threads: quit Hanlon razoring your own company. Google has done this repeatedly with Microsoft, from blocking Maps and YouTube on Windows Phone to this. The blocking is always specific and based on badlisting Microsoft version strings, and demonstrably has not affected Firefox (even ESR versions!), Safari, etc. I've posted elsewhere in this topic (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20033057 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20033057) a way you can test this yourselves. They're badlisting Chromium based Edge, not, as so many seem to assume, using a goodlist of browsers they tested. I'm sure it's difficult to imagine the "Don't Be Evil" company doing malicious, anti-competitive things, but that's what's happening here, as it's happened many times before. Punishing and deterring Microsoft Edge users is a thing that someone at Google made a conscious decision about. Test it yourselves.
