We’ve needed this for a while. IE still felt like it did on Windows 7 even on Windows 10, which made it a shitty browser, and I’m glad to see Microsoft acknowledged that and released Edge into Windows way back in 2015. It still had its issues and was slow as heck, but it at least worked as a replacement until I was able to install Firefox onto my old school computer (before the Great Googleization happened and we got stuck with these crap Chromebooks). I’m glad Microsoft decided to ditch the proprietary EdgeHTML/Chakra engines and gave Chromium a spin (and it even ended up better than Chrome itself)
That said, I remember back in the first grade me and my classmates would crash the edutainment software we were stuck in by starting an activity, and while it was loading, we’d switch to another screen, and it would reveal the Windows XP system running underneath. My first experience with the internet itself was playing the flash game Learn to Fly on Coolmath in Internet Explorer.
It never showed a BSOD when the game crashed, it would just throw a message box, and we’d just exit it. Windows would still run just fine.
