new messenger opens links in EDGE instead of default browser.

@klm0sabl. Back off, Messenger is a Zuckerberg product, not a Microsoft product.

That's true, but then why did they make it so that Messenger now opens in Edge? Seems like handing a lot of power to Microsoft. Messenger isn't even a stand-alone app anymore; I have a program called Revo Uninstaller, and according to that, the new "version" of Messenger is 0 KB in size, because all it does is redirect to Edge. No one uses Edge willingly, so it's obviously a major pain to have Messenger suddenly only open links in Microsoft's garbage browser. It also doesn't show when someone is online, and according to others in this thread, the call/video functions aren't working either.

Are you new to tech? This is something very easily tested for yourself, what's the confusion?

I've been a tech for 27 years and this is yet again a disgusting business practice from one of the most corrupt companies on earth, Microsoft.

To save the so called tech person time, I tested myself, took less than a minute, it defaults to EDGE regardless of the settings telling you that it will choose the default browser, as i said, another disgusting act from Microsoft against its users, that they obviously don't care about, maybe if we were money?

Doesn't work.

No longer an option. You can open Messenger in the browser, but that's it.
