Like, Im on Linux and replace my own PC parts. I dont think Im particularly techadept but I know some of the very basics and how to troubleshoot. Im just aware that a lot of folks don’t.
My parents manage to use it regularly even though I put Firefox as their standard browser in everything. They will then complain about the ads on the internet.

Literally once a month this happens.
Counterpoint: there are things Edge does better than Chrome.
