minus-squareamio@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up14arrow-down2·edit-210 months agoEdge* is fucking shitty, to boot. It keeps serving my grandma fucking scam ads, how in the ever-loving motherfuck is that a thing in an official Microsoft browser?
minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up4·10 months agoAre you expecting a browser to filter search results for you? The blame should go to the search engine, and you should be using an ad blocker to boot.

minus-squareamio@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-210 months agoShit, I just noticed, that is what I said. And here I’m being all sassy. My bad - I did mean Edge of course. (Edge really is fucking awful though, so you’re lucky, I guess)
