Microsoft Edge or Google?

> Google likes making it fancy, but with Microsoft Edge, the first thing I noticed is absolutely no lag.
> And also more features! Right clicking on Chrome is the simple stuff: Copy/Paste, Inspect and not much tools. But I noticed on Microsoft Edge, Way more! Paste as plain text, Read aloud, Translate to English, etc.

I prefer Google because it's security and computer protection is very high. Like when lichess's website certificate got expired Google wouldn't lemme go to lichess because Google security thinks lichess is full of hackers. But when @)Thibault renewed the certificate then Google let me go to lichess

Second Google has more facilities than Edge such as Gmail , Google maps, Google meet , Google play , Google pay , Google home , it even has its own house assistant Google Assistant, Google watch Google search, and many many more.
Nope you can't compare edge with Google, its either edge with chrome or Google with Bing
Just give it up man. Do you have any idea how stupid this sounds? Stop talking like a linguistically precocious nine year old girl. Learn some English for a change.
Microsoft Edge is not customizable, and the Google Homepage can be customizable. Even though sometimes Edge brings up some backgrounds you don't like in the Homepage, Google tells you, "Hey Buddy, you don't like me white, make me red! Make me black! Make me any color from below!" And you can also add your own background and quite nice suggestions which are show-stopping. I think this plays a huge role in controlling what you search and getting comfortable, because you can't always see white right? Although when we see the hyperlinks section, we see that when we go to a site often, the hyperlink automatically pops on the homepage and that is quite annoying because for example if you search say 'Songs' on YouTube for 5 days continuous, then edge automatically puts a pop with the link - www.youtube.com/results?search_query=songs and the surprising thing it doesn't happen once, if you search for 10 days say, there will be 2 popups with the link - www.youtube.com/results?search_query=songs. In Google though, the hyperlinks section is totally manageable and manual, which makes Edge a not very popular choice for many users. Also, for many users, Edge is actually very fast, and takes low response time, that is dependent on your pc. On a low end potato pc, you may notice Google run very fast and Edge takes 1-2 minutes to just start up, and even the buffering lags. But when you use it, then it becomes fine. One last thing I would like to point out is that Edge has a Bot which I think is recently added. It is really clever, and types just like my friend would. The Bot is so intelligent that it does just not give lines like other bots, it registers the question/statement and then answers something related! Not like the stupid Zoom bot! (No Promotion) This is a really cool feature in Edge though, for wasting and idling time.

In the end I think it's up to you to see, I have given some of the key points for which one you should take. Mainly in the Windows 10 or 11 you have both Edge and Google, and I use both, Edge for managing my channel, and Google for college and stuff, so it's your call. Oh my hands are so tired, 'cuz this whole thing was original :/

Even Google's incognito and Edges private mode is not very powerful. It shows you when you switch it on. If you cheat in exams, and if you are signed in to your school account, then not even private mode or incognito can help you. You will certainly get detected if you are signed in to your school account

You can't open an incognito window with your school account in chrome (it was a recent update a month ago)
