Over the Edge

Installed the Chrome based Edge on my Linux system along with Teams which my partner of many, many years needs for civic participation meetings. I never use it for anything else. It is most bloated and unintuitive spin on Chromium I've ever encountered. Totally useless. Big Firefox fan myself. To add insult to injury I now have to have two M$ ( I know using this abbreviation marks me out as a "Linux bigot" )

accounts because the first one triggered some obscure Teams bug. I took me more time than I care

to remember to get Teams to work reliably with the help of the administrator on the other end, who

was very patient with me. Although he knew Linux existed he'd never encountered anyone who used

it. Suppose I should be grateful to Microsoft for porting all this software to Linux but I am not. As soon

as this pandemic is over & she doesn't need it any more it's 'apt-get purge' for the lot of it.
