Can Microsoft be any more annoying?

I had to laugh when I searched for "Vivaldi" in Edge on a new installation and Bing said "There's no reason to switch to a new browser!"

How about when you have to update your machine and it goes through the "setup" which is just disguised ads for services like microsoft 365? That's pretty annoying.
