LeFantome comments on Firefox is the only way.

Why? Because you liked the greater browser diversity or because you think it made a better browser?

Diversity. MS had made great strides with EdgeHTML, but it was still pretty bad

But at least opening the browser didn't take all my ram.

And also at the very least you had another option. Which, in my opinion, wasn't that bad, at least it could've been if they just gave up on Bing and MSN.

No way, they can't give up on bing. They do that and all we have is Google for searches. We need the competition. For MSN, it's all about content now, I kinda like that branding... It makes it easier to see that I don't want to see it.

It was actually one of the most W3C compliant browsers there is, more so than chromium based ones. Unfortunately google’s near monopoly has made websites focus on working in chrome, not on standards.
