Edge has gotten really good, how much impediment is that?

So how about Edge?

Is the new Edge changing that?

Something tells me Edge will have an advantage, at least for awhile.

Edge has made substantial gains in market share in the past few years. But it's hard to definitively ascribe it to any specific change.

What about Edge?

Edge is good. I dunno why people try to say it isn't. Just use it, it's good.

What's wrong with Edge. Been pleasantly surprised by it myself.

It's like Chrome, but better in pretty much every way. Never thought I'd say this but Edge is actually pretty good!

Very frequent and large feature updates, deepening ecosystem integration that uncharacteristically doesn't get the way if you don't use it.

I always get a bit anxious when one of these massive enterprises suddenly gets up and starts moving with newfound focus, and MS is pretty much sprinting on Adderall at this point.

Did you read an article about Edge's performance recently?

Edge is so irrelevant, that you have to wonder why everyone's obsessing with MS's recent moves with it.

It's <5% (and decreasing, still pretty quickly).

Edge is genuinely very very good. It does have some dev tool problems that I've run into, but for browser it's top notch.

Edge is getting pretty good, it's UI performance is as good or better than Chrome now. BUT, if you're leaving Chrome because they include proprietary binaries, moving to Edge isn't an improvement there.

Edge is better.

shreyshnaccount | karma 657 | avg karma 1.41 · | 2021-10-24 05:49:48

and how hard is it to change that? as hard as it is in edge?

rrishi | karma 878 | avg karma 5.52 · | 2023-02-03 07:14:34

I did try Edge a couple of years ago and I would agree with your observation too. I just didn't stick with Edge and came back to for some reason that is escaping me right now.

vermooten | karma 245 | avg karma 1.17 · | 2017-10-18 19:30:34+00:00

Are they still pushing Edge?

RmDen | karma 1516 | avg karma 7.66 · | 2019-02-27 11:20:16

Edge is the new IE

charrondev | karma 1115 | avg karma 2.55 · | 2021-06-24 21:07:53+00:00

Should edge be replacing that?

Prego | karma 4 | avg karma 0.18 · | 2017-04-21 13:49:35

I think we all noticed Edge and how great it is.
