those tables usually are wrong or misleading, i don't like them.

Edge for example has the 3rd party cookie blocking and it works ok, so why it's "no" and not "somewhat" or similar?

Does it, though? Or does Microsoft come under the second party label

if i enable it, most websites don't load ads at all, including MSN news that's ad-ridden

the 'msn news' that most people see is the 'start' page that's baked into the edge browser. ubo does not work on it. for users that actually want that page, i clean up the start page settings and throw a bookmark to msn.com on their toolbar instead so ubo works.

Yeah Iโ€™m confused about what tracking Chrome blocks that Chredge does not.

By that logic Linux supports windows because I can run it using wine.
