The best bit is that if you have hybrid exchange, you need to keep an on-prem server.

Derp.

Anyone who is likely to update shifted off anything requiring oracle JDK years ago.

Bye!!! Good riddance!

... who do nothing are exactly how this behaviour is perpetrated.

But then, this is what you can expect when you try to get an action out of large groups.

This argument is only really valid if you're on an open source OS (which sounds like you are).

But IMHO if you're on a proprietary OS (and many are for various reasons) - if the included browser is good enough, that company already has access to all your data anyway so you may as well run it rather than add another third party to the mix.

... it is installed by default and "good enough". Just like IE was back in the 4.x days, it became "good enough" for most people's requirements and was included by default.

Chromium Edge isn't actually terrible either. It's essentially chrome anyway with less of the google malware behaviour; if you're on Windows you're already subject to whatever Microsoft does with your data anyhow so Edge is no additional disclosure really.

Personally I use Brave, but if its a box I don't spend a heap of time on, I don't bother and just use Edge.

... intel 7nm is still not going to be functional in 2023.

got it...

More seriously, what does Facebook do? They're an oauth provider, they provide messenger services, VR equipment, VR software store, they co-developed the open switching platform, they have an ad network, they provide shared calendaring, discussion forums, video chat, etc.

I'm not saying they're a good company, but in terms of the things they have their fingers in, its basically most of the internet.

To write them off as just another myspace is fairly short-sighted. They're huge.
