I haven't seen any nags at all. Chrome is notoriously the most anti-privacy browser in the top-flight; Edge generally has better privacy controls than Chrome. But, if you're comparing it to Brave or some others, you'll be disappointed if that is your main concern.

Edge does occasionally nag you about "using the recommended defaults" (i.e. Bing) after updating.

Edge is continually adding new invasive features. I've had the same policies set for Chrome for some time to remove any telemetry but Edge has a habit of turning things back on that were disabled and trying to push more junk. Chrome has not does this to me and I really don't think your point is accurate, at least not based on my experience and if you compare the two you'll definitely find Edge opting in to much more by default.

"Habit" is such euphemism.
