I used to use Edge at home, then ditched it. I used it recently at work and it is getting really enshittified. Now I'm between Cromite which works until suddenly the interface freezes, or Ungoogled Chromium which I haven't got to work on the work laptop (it works now on my home Linux so whatever).
Edge used to be so much better before today.
Try out Firefox. It works incredibly well
Or Librewolf, which is a fork from Firefox and removes the telemetry that Firefox collects.
That's too extreme for most people. A lot of people do want certain services to remember they logged in for example. Waterfox is typically the better recommendation - or, was. I'm less trusting of them after they chose to use Brave Browser code for an AdBlocker
I do use Firefox as well, for non-work activities at home and in the office.
Edge before it adopted Chromium was an excellent browser - fast, standards compliant, rock solid. Adopting Chromium is basically them doing the absolute minimum to ship a browser at all without showing someone else's logo. We use Edge at work - Chrome and Firefox are also supported - and it shocking how many MDM policies we have to have to make Edge usable.
