This is the best browser for Windows imo. Edge for Business, it's different to the regular Edge that comes preloaded with Windows, it's like an Enterprise SKU (which everyone should be using in the big 25) except it's completely free. The out of box experience is really clean, and if you know how to import the ADMX templates, you can use the Group Policy editor to turn off things you don't like, such as Copilot, Connected Experiences, telemetry and diagnostics.

I used to use "privacy" oriented browsers like LibreWolf and Brave, but they are so darn slow for me.
If you configure it right, Edge for Business is really the best browser you can get right now.
