Bing chat has saved edge and bing search for me, it just works. I ask it a random question, like how many spiders you'd have to eat to have eaten a pound of them and it just tells me and shows the work. I don't need to look up how much a spider weights and then do math myself, it just does it.

Firefox is still my main browser, but I'll open edge to ask dumb questions and I have a lot of stupid questions and it has answers without me needing to dig through bullshit to find what I need.

Sounds like a great way to get a wrong answer

It shows it's work, you can follow it's citations to ensure it's not complete bullshit.

Also no seriously these are dumb questions, I was watching Fraiser the other day and it implied his ratings were in the millions, and I asked bing if that was even possible considering he was on AM radio in the 90s (it's not), but even if it was completely wrong it literally doesn't matter...

Get the extension that enables bing chat for Firefox

You really should reconsider your priorities if stupid questions like that are what causing you to stay with edge.

"Hmm do I need privacy, or do I need to know how many spiders are in a pound?"
