I'm not saying Firefox is less good or anything.
Just that I'm not surprised Microsoft doesn't bother targeting Firefox with this popup. Microsoft's goal is to get more market share and going after Firefox users is not going to get much of it. Even if they somehow convince every single Firefox users to use Edge they would still be far behind Chrome.
