(in reply to another comment) You don't know what you're talking about. I hate Microsoft Edge for various reasons, but WebView2 is literally just Chromium. You don't have any of what makes Edge bad. And using webviews means that storage and memory usage is not duplicated per app. iOS and Android use webviews extensively and I don't see you complaining about them.
