Humans are creatures of habit and the bad and good impressions from the old days tend to stick around regrades if the current realities have shifted, because people aren't into browser hopping for the sake of experimentation, especially if they're already invested in the ecosystem of one browser (have their cookies already there, have their passwords already stored, have an Android or a Chromebook).Įdge could even cure cancer and people still wouldn't use it or give it a try, because the image that the default browser shipped with Windows (IE, Edge, whatever it happens to be called) must automatically be crap and Google's browser must automatically be better. Well, Edge has objectively been better than Chrome on Windows (faster, less memory usage, longer battery life) for years now, but almost nobody knows this as people still default to installing Chrome out of 10+ years of habit. Make a better product and people will actually use it. >People go out of their way to install something else and don't use Edge and Bing because they are worse than the competition.
