When I was forced to use edge I found it to be worse than IE, at least from the 
user perspective; it might have better security for all I know. At Home I use 
Firefox, and I might wind up with Falkon ( https://www.falkon.org/about/).

Are you seeing an use of Konqueror 
(https://kde.org/applications/internet/org.kde.konqueror)?

Increasingly rare though.

Looking across all of our customer requests for the last month or so, I do see 
users who came in on IE, but in every one of those instances, somebody else 
from the company came in on Chrome, Firefox, or Edge (which the earlier 
versions weren't that much better than IE). There's even a few Safari and Opera 
users out there.

The numbers imply that IE may be the corporate default but most (and apparently 
all our customers) are allowing Chrome or Firefox as well. Chrome seems to be 
the most popular option. Even Microsoft saw the light: the current version of 
Edge is based on the open source version of Chrome under the covers. Some have 
suggested it would be better to have more diversity in the underlying browser 
technology, but Chromium generally is pretty good.
