I had to use my parents desktop a when I flew home for a bit.

Surfing the internet is fucking stressful if you don’t have adblocks. So overstimulating!!

I’m also on windows and for some reason I had to use Edge.

The Edge home screen is the VERY REASON google killed it back in the 90s. Clean clear search screen. Allows you to think what you are doing with out getting bombarded with ads and posts and ads and markets. Reminded me how terrible the search experience was back in Alta Vista and Yahoo days
