Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision has been described as the largest in tech history. It deserves scrutiny. That scrutiny has paid off: Microsoft has committed in writing, in public, and in court to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation for 10 years on parity with Xbox. It made an agreement with Nintendo to bring Call of Duty to Switch. And it entered several agreements to for the first time bring Activision’s content to several cloud gaming services. This Court’s responsibility in this case is narrow. It is to decide if, notwithstanding these current circumstances, the merger should be halted—perhaps even terminated—pending resolution of the FTC administrative action. For the reasons explained, the Court finds the FTC has not shown a likelihood it will prevail on its claim this particular vertical merger in this specific industry may substantially lessen competition. To the contrary, the record evidence points to more consumer access to Call of Duty and other Activision content. The motion for a preliminary injunction is therefore DENIED. "

I mean I used chrome before and they both use the same underlying bits and since I use it by default 1)as end user support I can always have in my back pocket knowing the defaults by heart 2)it doesn’t bug me. The usability is the same so… unless I wanted to switch to Firefox it’s the best option and Firefox is so wildly different from what my user base where I work uses there’s no point I’d rather be in the environment they are in…. If edge was as bad as IE then yeah I’d not use it but it works
