Can you use ublock origin on android with edge?
That would a actually be a hell of a competitive advantage. There are a few forks of chromium that have extension support but MS throwing down might push Google to allow them.

#22I really like the reader mode and speech-to-text engine, it's very high quality. Just one question though, is the browser going to have linux support at some point?
It may have linux support at some time(like they have given hint before) but many linux users are not going to use this browser.
Lots of Linux users use Chrome so it’s wouldn’t be that surprising if it got a little traction from users that want a non-google chrome with out of the box widevine

#23I am using Firefox at this time(only complaints are, performance which is less than chromium based browsers, and bugs in fenix). I am not interested in Edge because it is just closed sourced fork of chromium. Better use firefox or ungoogled chromium or new upcoming Bold browser(brave browser fork without crypto or token) https://github.com/BoldBrowser
Speaking of Chromium-based browsers - Has anyone here tried Vivaldi? How is it?
Re: New Microsoft Edge
#24Interesting, while I can't find any way to enable extensions, looks like the Edge Browser for Android has built-in adblocker! [0]
(It's not uBlock.. But better than no protection).
Re: New Microsoft Edge
#25Been using the new Edge Browser since two weeks, mostly for testing our new web app. I must say i'm really impressed. The speed definitely is better than Firefox (which is my default). To give due credit, this is the best browser from Microsoft.
Re: New Microsoft Edge
#26Still no version for Linux. A lot of Linux users are getting impatient waiting for Microsoft to release this app.

Yes. It is good. It is one closed sourced chromium fork i can recommend. It's developers are linux advocates too.
It has some opera browser features. It has also released part of it's source code.
At the end of the day,i am not using vivaldi because it is not open source. Brave browser is also nice imo(except crypto and tokens)
Re: New Microsoft Edge
#28I found when using Ublock origin, when edge imported my extensions, it used the edge version, which has slightly different behaviour than the chrome store version. Install from chrome web store if you see inconsistent results

Which is ironic given that the core is now from Google.
