See comment.
Four years ago, I changed all of my browsers to have a blank start/home page for similar reasons. I figured I could decide where to go after opening the browser.
My Microsoft Edge browser always opens to Free Republic.
It didn’t work.
Bill is going to be outed when the Epstein list gets published.
I should do the same. But have so many layers of security on top would be a pain to reset a bunch of passwords and other security protocols. Guess I'll suck it up and do it. Sigh. PS idiots at MSFT Edge.
You can hide their news entirely. Don’t recall how, but it wasn’t difficult. I just have favorites bar stuff showing on mine. I’d rather not use Edge, though, so only open it when something I’m trying to do doesn’t like my preferred browser.
Microsoft is very much anti Trump , will not use Edge.
I’ve worked hard to sanitize my start-up screen and web browsers (Edge and Chrome). It seems like I’ve had to do this more than once. Several Weather channels are Global Warming, Climate Change propagandists. I settled on WeatherNation on my computer because it just gives local weather forecasts unless you ask for more.
Oh I can take their fake “news.” Doesn’t bug me too much. Can click off.
What bugs me is they have a good app a lot of people use and are abusing it to push an anti-Trump agenda that might influence a lot of young and dumb.
I loaded Edge and it was slow, klunky, and locked up all the time. Put in Chrome to get back to making it work.
I forgot to mention Firefox. I don’t think I have had any trouble with their browser. They do not have a mail program.
I generally use the DuckDuckGo search engine, regardless of the browser. You have to designate it as it is not the default search engine.
I just learned that they also have their own browser.
This is the Edge side.
This is the foam side.
I’ve got Chrome and use it for certain things. But is Google really better than Microsoft?
I suggest switching to Brave rather than using browsers from fascists who have devoted themselves to brainwashing you. The way MS, Google and other outfits shove sewage down our throats at every opportunity is appalling.
I have been happy with Firefox. I avoid anything of Bill Gates if I can, but my Operating System on my computer is unfortunately of Microsoft. I have gotten to damn old to change and learn where all the whistles and bells are on a new system.
I use Chrome and Firefox. I have have either DDG or Google as my homepage. I like DDG but sometimes Google search provides the best results. All my-email is web based or I use the Mail app on my iPhone where I have all but one of my accounts configured.
Ah, I see. Seems all browser homepages have the same problem, just like legacy media, most social media, etc. I don’t have the answers, so I’ve just opted myself out of seeing it. Figure it’s better for my sanity.
Thunderbird is their email program.
Oh I'm not worried about me. I'm immune to brainwashing. Long story there.
I'm trying to counter-act their brainwashing of the young and dumb. This entire thread was created because I know certain people you see on TV pay attention to Free Republic. And also always appreciate Freeper's input.
Change your default start page to a site you like in your Settings area.
