This is just sleazy, Edge is on the verge of feeling dirty to use. You're starting to overdo these third-party integrations and services. As it stands right now, I spend about 5-6 minutes making sure that all the extra crap is disabled whenever I set up Edge on a new computer or move between channels. Please stop turning all these things on by default, or at least give us an option for a "Core" experience that is basic browsing features plus the security enhancements. Edge on Mac is getting heavier and heavier. I am way more interested in a lightning fast browser that uses minimal resources while being secure. These kinds of things should be separated into extensions. I don't even want the shopping and discovery features y'all have pushed out. “This all feels extremely unnecessary for a browsing experience,” one user said. It didn’t take long for the howling and gnashing of teeth to begin. The so-called “buy now, pay later” app, which used to be known as Quadpay, lets shoppers break purchases into equal installment payments so they get their merchandise upfront, rather than having to wait until it’s paid in full. Two weeks ago, Microsoft said it planned to bake an app called Zip directly into Edge. In recent years, Edge has built a following of users attracted to the security of the Microsoft browser, in addition to features including immersive reading, collections (which saves webpages or notes to categorized notebooks), vertical tabs, and the ability to take screenshots directly from a webpage. The app would allow users to make purchases immediately and pay for them at a future date. Microsoft is taking a lot of flak for planning to integrate a short-term financing app into the company’s Edge browser.
