Why not use chromium or a hardened version of it? Edge is proprietary software.

Yes, but Edge comes with a lot more proprietary components added.

I would recommend installing ungoogled-chromium or using another hardened FOSS version of chromium instead.

Stop using chromium based browsers.

The person was saying they couldn't access a certain site with Firefox, that's why I suggested a chromium based browser.
