This isn't "backfiring" though. People who were already blocking ads are the only ones doing this. If there's even a small portion of people who gave up and just started watching ads/got premium, that means YouTube won. The only way this could really be considered to have backfired is if people were stopping using YouTube entirely, which isn't really happening.

It's distinctly fine nowadays. Old Edge was absolute garbage, modern one is a Microsoft version of Chrome. The problem is that I don't want to swap one mega Corp for another, I want to have a good product. It's very rarely going to be the best browser for any user, and if I were going to default to recommending one to non-tech users, I'd still rather just say Firefox.

That's the trick. Just get the domain as step one and leave it parked
