How will this one be called? Also Copilot? Slopilot?

M$ has done more to convince people that AI is bullshit than anyone else and I just want to thank them for their hard work.

Step One: Install literally any other browser
Step Two: Make new browser the default
Step Three: Forget that Edge exists

Peace.

I hate Microsoft edge with a burning passion, and Microslop tries to force me to use it when I click any link from Outlook

Your tools actively make my job HARDER

It is so obnoxious. Fuck Microsoft, fuck Edge, and fuck Outlook.

How can you fumble a quasi-monopoly on desktop operating systems this hard

“Sir, a second slop has hit production”

I'm really loving this new Microslop name.

Also... looks like someone bought www.microslop.com and redirected to their own site: https://www.philipncohen.com/

Get ready for:

clicks hyperlink

Entire page is scraped and sent to copilot LLM to be processed. This causes a 1.5 second delay

Then after you get passed the cookies popup and promo popup, the whole page shifts and gets injected with copilot summarizations right as you were about to click on something else.

Work forces me to use edge, this'll be fun

Imagine using Edge when other browsers exist.

Who the fuck even uses Edge?

This post gave me the last push to defy my employer's stupid policies and install Waterfox in lieu of Edge... thanks MicroSlop

When do they rename Edge to Copilot Explorer. :)

Microsoft aren’t content with 20 different UI styles in windows, they need a 21st. Especially after they saw the latest iOS design.

“Hey! Let’s take the new iOS design but without the transparency!”

Desperate move, desperate times.

Renaming it to CoPilot Browser in 3...2...

Did the article really not include a screenshot of the interface?

Edit: looks like the verge has some screenshots

It does look like garbage

Ironfox, Cromite, Librewolf, Ungoogled Chromium, Orion, so many much better options nowadays.

At my work we call the 'granny browser'.

Hmm slop, edge, sludge
