I know you can play the game at chrome://dino, but it doesn't evoke the same nostalgic feeling of a 10yr old me turning on aeroplane mode and spamming space bar to try and beat my brother's high score. Good memories.

Edge has replaced Chrome for me actually. If any time Firefox doesn't work for me, or the website just runs better on Chrome, I use Edge. It's chromium, so it does everything Chrome can do, plus a few features like PDF viewing, collections, and lower resource usage than Chrome (maybe).

And, the hope is any Data Collection algorithms in it have been replaced by Microsoft. (Maybe with their own, but at least they don’t run an ad network)

Sorry; you’re correct, I shouldn’t have said that.

Still, that ad network generally has far less influence and presence than Google’s, and I don’t think there’s a huge effort to make it grow to their size.

I mean if you use windows it's baked right into the OS already, I still just prefer Firefox though, I liked the profiles in chrome especially made it easy to switch accounts with its own bookmarks but I got used to living without that

Why wouldn't you just go back to the source: Chromium? There's even Ungoogled Chromium running strong and others similar to it. In some cases you need to do some shenanigans to get extensions to work (from the Chrome extensions store) but it's locked down enough that you can safely say fuck Google whilst still using the browser code Google colonized and made universal.

Or whatever.
