<p>regarding the windows mail links opening in edge, I think is related to the S mode. With S mode, edge is the only browser that is supported?. Maybe we could cut some slack for MS, the mail is a free app (and a reasonably good one), so is it too much for them to ask to open the link in edge and keep it within the MS ecosystem? Also I am not sure if Google can get analytics on the opened links in chrome</p>
<p>Microsoft buying Square would be frightening to the current Square customers…it's hard to see MS keeping the no-per-transaction charge, smallish %, and same day deposit to bank accounts that Square does.</p>
