That kid with abandonment issues that tries to bribe classmates to stay a little while longer by promising them candy, but instead of that kid it's Microsoft, and instead of candy it's gravel.

Yeah MS, compel use of your software by forcing it on people, cajoling and misleading them. Instead of, ya know, adding killer features that make it popular and recommended by all, the way so many of your competitors did as they ate your lunch.

Am I victim of the Mandela effect or did this happen some years ago too? I remember setting up chrome on win10 in my tech-normie days and getting a similar thing, maybe my memory is failing me.

I think I am okay with this popup, I mean they are asking whats wrong with their product. They arent trying to break something in Chrome or like that.

If Edge stops forcing everyone with their "new and improved AI powered..." stuff, it is better than Chrome.

The answer, as the saying goes, is in the body of the question.

I love Edge so I never get this pop up.
