Probably a combination. I get an annoying song and dance the first time I open Edge after an update, but I don't use Edge on the regular. Sometimes if I'm trying to buy something Edge will tell me that a site has coupons, but I don't get interruptions that often.


I mean if your problem with Chrome is data collection, then interruptions are kind of beside the point right? You should be looking into what data Edge collects, including the shopping stuff I mentioned. I'd go check out all the settings pages if I were you, and make sure these options are off (and any others I neglected to list). OTOH if you're just using Edge over Chrome due to other reasons then I guess none of this is relevant.


I do that with any browser I use whenever it updates.
