Installing Firefox has never been easier.

I'm not sure what you're envisioning, but I'm expecting that to be a full-blown argument with a chatbot aligned specifically to prevent you from not using Edge.
And equally as likely, a chat bot from Microsoft telling you not to use Microsoft products :))
I wish installing Linux was easier. I can manage it, but I still have to sacrifice Discord* and VR, which I use a lot.

*Discord kinda works, but the screen sharing has no audio. There’s a hacked flatpak to fix this, but I’ve yet to get the font rendering to look quite right with it.

Linux isn’t quite “there” yet but it gets closer and closer as time goes on. In the last year, Easy Anti-Cheat came to Linux and now we are able to play many multiplayer AAA titles. In my experience the games run as well as PC, though there were “classic Linux” hiccups depending on the distro I was using with Steam/Proton runtime.
It doesn't appear you clicked the article.

Microsoft Copilot is a full application, not a web browser.

In this case you can choose not to open the application, that is always an option.

Nobody is forcing you to use these tools.
