I swapped to it from Firefox. I want to avoid google, but the chromium dev tools are better. Also they have a really nice side tabs in Edge (built in).

Additionally they also have a built in tab suspension feature with an exclusion list.

I did for a while but then it started trying to interefere with my Amazon purchases so I went back to Firefox.

You want to avoid Google for Microsoft? What is the reason?

Microsoft is arguably the lesser evil given that their business model doesn't rely on data collection and tracking.
